Tired of being what you want me to be,
feeling so faithless
lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me,
put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow.)
every step that I take is another mistake to you
(caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow.)

I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
is be more like me and be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me
holding too tightly afraid to lose control
'cause everything that you thought I would be
is falling apart, right in front of you
(caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
every step that I take is another mistake to you
(caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
and every second I waste is more than I can take

I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I'm becoming this all I want to do
is be more like me and be less like you...

and I know I may end up failing too but I know
that you were just like me with someone dissapointed
in you
