Tom Wilkins - The Imposter

Written by: Tom Wilkins

Woke up this morning, mirror on the wall.

Looking at a stranger, don't know him at all.

Put on my jacket, zip it up tight.

Stepping out the door, it just don't feel right.

Walking through the crowd, feeling so alone.

Every step I take, I feel like a clone.

Trying to keep up, wear a perfect smile.

Inside I am lost, been searching for miles.

I've been trying all day, to forget how I feel.

It's impossible to shake, and it's making me ill.

I am the imposter, it's the way that I feel.

I'm right here surviving, but it doesn't feel real.

In the nightclub, voices all around.

Laughing at me, I can't make a sound.

in my head, it's a noisy fight.

Will I be found out, and exposed tonight?

Holding on so tight, to a fleeting dream.

Invisible me, it's how I feel.

I try to forget, struggle to do.

I don't know how I'll make it through.

I've been trying all day, to forget how I feel.

It's impossible to shake, and it's making me ill.

I am the imposter, it's the way that I feel.

I'm right here surviving, but it doesn't feel real.

Morning comes by, and I face my fear.

Trying to listen, to the thoughts I can hear.

In the end, I'll be okay, I'll make it through.

But I feel like a fraud, it follows me whatever I do.

I've been trying all day, to forget how I feel.

It's impossible to shake, and it's making me ill.

I am the imposter, it's the way that I feel.

I'm right here surviving, but it doesn't feel real.
