Alienation de 40 Below Summer

What it cost me to assimilate myself
it engulfed me and turned me into someone else
it is crashing right into your face
everlasting it seems to suffer in this
please release me, please release me
nothing i can do will change my life
everything i had was never mine to keep inside
if i could give myself a new face
then maybe i could join the human race
time has frozen for me the walls are closing in
i am sinking in greed and trapped inside my skin
i am running away and getting nowhere fast
i am thinking how long can this last
erase me, please erase me
and i rise above it all
and i run away
