Anything But Me

Lyrics

I am just a satellite, high above the atmosphere  
Bouncing every thing you say to someone who is meant to hear  
Sometimes on a rainy day, I lie in bed and dream of you  
So blame it on the satellite, when your message can't get through  
  
I am just a tiny wave, a minor ripple out at sea  
Moving slowly towards the shore, burdened with uncertainty  
I'm gaining power, losing speed, wondering as I near your door  
Will you hold it open for the tidal wave approaching shore?  
  
You've become an island in the hazy world surrounding me  
Offering a vast reward each time I safely cross the sea  
All too often I become lost in the fog and haze  
Clinging still, against my will, to promises of clearer days  
  
I am just a raindrop that accelerates without control  
Losing bits and pieces in descent 'til I'm no longer whole  
I am just another shooting star above that you might see  
Until I have your full attention I'll be anything but me  
Anything but me
