Blue Rodeo Lyrics
"'Til I Am Myself Again"

I want to know where my confidence went
One day it all disappeared
And I'm lying in a hotel room
Miles away
Voices next door in my ear

Well daytime's a drag
Night-time's worse
Hope that I can get home soon
But the half-finished bottles of inspiration
Lie like ghosts in my room

Well I wanna go
I know I can't stay
But I don't want to run
Feeling this way
'Til I am myself
'Til I am myself
'Til I am myself again

There's a seat on the corner
I keep every night
Wait 'til the evening begins
I feel like a stranger
From another world
But at least I'm living again

There are nights
Full of anger
Words that are thrown
Tempers that are shattered and thin
But the moments of magic
Are just too short
They're over before they begin

Well I know it's time
One big step
I can't go
I'm not ready yet
'Til I am myself
'Til I am myself
'Til I am myself again

I had a dream
That my house was on fire
People laughed while it burned
Well I tried to run but my legs were numb
I had to wait 'til the feeling returned

Well I don't need a doctor
To figure it out
I know what's passing me by
When I look in the mirror
Sometimes I see
Traces of some other guy

Well I wanna go
I know I can't stay
I don't want to run
Feeling this way
'Til I am myself
'Til I am myself
'Til I am myself again
