Since the Day That I Was Born

I've known you since the day that I was born.
You know every seam where I'm torn.
You're the shot from a starting gun.
You echo out; I run.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
With a face more familiar than my clone,
You show up the moment I'm alone,
Telling me what to be,
Telling me when to leave.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
Yeah, I've known you since the day that I was born.
Halfway to your doorstep from mine is well worn.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
You'd like me to believe that we are one.
And give into this nightmare life's become.
Where every thought is made of shame
And I forgot my real name.
Yeah, I forgot my real name.
Oh, but you and I are not the same.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
Halfway to your doorstep is mine well worn.
'Cause I've known you since the day that I was born.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
I've known you since the day that I was born.
