It's always early
It's always dark when I leave
I check myself in the mirror
And he looks a lot like me
It could be London
But it's following me back home
I'm not complaining
But I wish he'd just stay in Rome
Isn't always right, you know
They smile, they came
But they don't know my name
We only look the same
And they don't know my name
Oh, turn the lights off
Turn all the lights off
All this love surrounds me
But I'm still alone
Your expectations
I'm never gonna measure up
I'm not a hero
Though I never was taught enough
They're screaming at me
And I just wanna scream right back
They wouldn't believe it
Though we'd never do a thing like that
It's taken all I've got not to crack
They smile, they came
But they don't know my name
We only look the same
And they don't know my name
Oh, turn the lights off
Turn all the lights off
All this love surrounds me
But I'm still alone
I only have to play the part
But that part is only part of me
Once in a while, let down my guard
And it's hard, afraid of what you'll see
I didn't mean to disappoint
But I'm not who you think I am
Maybe not who you think I am
They smile, they came
But they don't know my name
We only look the same
But they don't know my name
They smile, they came
But they don't know my name
We only look the same
And they don't know my name
Oh, turn the lights off
Turn all the lights off
Oh, turn the lights off
Turn all the lights off
Oh, turn the lights off
Turn all the lights off
All this love surrounds me
But I'm still alone
