[Verse 1]
Sick of being innocent
Sick of being ignorant too
I was in it for the thrill of it
'Til I started feelin' the truth
[Chorus]
Why'd you ever make me choose?
I don't wanna be like you
I thought I knew you but
I never knew you would turn us into animals
I don't wanna be like you
[Verse 2]
Realized I'm living in hell when I was given the news
Why'd you let the evil win?
How'd you let him sell it to you?
I remember growing up, mama used to sing me the blues
And now the kids are making noise just because it's something to do, to do, yeah
[Extended Chorus]
Why'd you ever make me choose?
I don't wanna be like you
I thought I knew you but I never knew you would turn us into animals
I don't wanna be like you
I don't wanna be like you
I don't wanna be like you
[Outro]
So now I'm second guessin' real life (ahh)
And if you left I still wouldn't feel right
