Replica

Everyday I watch you
Pour wine into your cup
Your house smells like weed and piss
I think I might throw up

They say that im just like you
No matter what I cant escape
Every time I look in the mirror I scream
Because I have to look at your face

The ghost of me
Has just faded away
I don’t know what to do
Theres nothing left to say

Everyday I give you your mail
Pour coffee into your cup
Knowing that one day I’ll be the one
Holding it when I grow up

Ive tried every pill
The doctors cannot see
There is never going to be a cure
I cant save myself from me

I cant see whats me thinking anymore
Now I smell like weed just like you
Im so afraid that I’ll end up like this
Im afraid I’ll be a dead caterpillar too

I don’t see why your dating him
And why you cant just apologize
Don’t you know you cant keep living like this
You need to finally open your eyes

Everyday I greet you
Try not to step in dog shit on the floor
The ecstasy has destroyed you completely
You aren’t yourself anymore

Im becoming my worst nightmare
I want to wake up from this awful dream
With the bottomless coffee cup
The piss,shit,weed and too late screams

Everyday I come see you
Pour wine into your cup
Because I know I’ll be the one with the handle
I will replace you when I grow up.
