The First Of Me Hoobastank

[Verse 1]
I must make a choice, a tough decision
Listen to my voice
Should I give in to temptation, admiration?
One leads to myself, the other someone else
Just an empty shell, just an empty shell

[Verse 2]
It's harder than it seems when you're told that
All your hopes and dreams are yours to hold
If you just give them what's expected
Something they can sell, put upon a shelf
But I am not for sale, I am not for sale

[Chorus]
I hear a voice inside, it's grown into a scream
I'm not the next of them, I am the first of me
'Cause I can't live the lie, I am just what you see
I'm not the next of them, I am the first of me

[Post-Chorus]
(The first of me, the first of me, the first of me)

[Verse 3]
If I can't refuse the price they offer
I am sure to lose and I will suffer
Sell my soul to make a profit
All I have to do is make-believe it's true
That something I can't do, that something I can't do
