"Doppelganger"

Try so hard to fit into the mold
That others shape for you
You finally think you're happy
But you've lost yourself along the way
You forget who you really are
Who you were meant to be
You've changed yourself to fit that image
Of what cool's supposed to be
Turning your back on all that's good
All that you've known and trusted
Leaving behind the only ones
Who truly cared for the real you
Not the doppelganger that you've become.

How to turn back the time
To return to who you were before
Back to the crossroad in your life
Where you took the wrong turn
If you can even remember the you
Before it was corrupted by society's angels
But it's not so easy as reversing
The hour hand on a magical watch
You're stuck with who you are now
The damage is done and you can do nothing
Just sit back and watch the entropy
Passing you by, destroying your soul
There's just no changing the past.
