The Other

(They'll never try, they'll never see What it's like to be the other) Never really knew what it meant Just always knew that I was different 'Cause I see a woman in the mirror But she's not in my reflection, yeah Took a lot for me to realize To open up and understand why Why everybody looks at me like I'm not what I ought to be I feel it all, the rise of the fall Pulling me under, me under With the last breath I breathe I swear I'll scream Until my lungs burn I am the other They'll never try, they'll never see What it's like to fight, it's like to be The other, I am the other We'll never hide, we'll never fear What it's like to fight, it's like to be The other, we are the other I've been scratching at the surface Trying to find out where the hurt is Now that I'm dancing with my demons I'm making everybody nervous I have to walk the path in front of me 'Cause I'm not one for following And I will not apologize Or lie for who I am They'll never try, they'll never see What it's like to fight, it's like to be The other, I am the other We'll never hide, we'll never fear What it's like to fight, it's like to be The other, we are the other I feel it all, the rise of the fall Pulling me under, me under With the last breath I breathe I swear I'll scream Until my lungs burn I am the other They'll never try, they'll never see What it's like to fight, it's like to be The other, I am the other We'll never hide, we'll never fear What it's like to fight, it's like to be The other, we are the other
