it's not me

Lyrics

“IT’S NOT ME”

Intro — distorted voice
Hello?
Hello…?
Why are you talking like me?

Verse 1
I hear footsteps down the hall,
But I know I’m here alone.
Something whispers with my voice,
Calling from behind the door.

It knows the way I move,
It knows the things I say.
Every little gesture,
It copies anyway.

Pre-Chorus
Something's wearing my face,
Something's learning my sound.
I can hear it getting closer,
But I can't see it around.

Chorus
IT'S NOT ME!
But it sounds just like me!
IT'S NOT ME!
Why won't it let me leave?
Every word, every move,
Every trick I do—
It watches, learns, repeats,
And now it's coming after you.

Verse 2
A broken mask, a twisted grin,
Something's moving in the dark.
I hear a laugh that sounds familiar—
Then I see those glowing eyes.

It doesn't need to understand,
It only needs to copy.
A perfect imitation
With something seriously wrong.

Pre-Chorus
Don't trust the voice,
Don't trust the face.
If something looks like someone you know,
Get out of the place.

Chorus
IT'S NOT ME!
But it sounds just like me!
IT'S NOT ME!
And now it's getting close!
Every word, every move,
Every trick I do—
It watches, learns, repeats,
Until it becomes you.

Bridge — quiet
What if it learns my name?
What if it learns my voice?
What if it learns everything
That makes me… me?

Footsteps.

Mimic:
“Hello?”

You:
“…Who's there?”

Mimic:
“Who's there?”

Music cuts.

Mimic:
“Who's there?”

Final Chorus
IT'S NOT ME!
WHY DOES IT SOUND LIKE ME?!
IT'S NOT ME!
GET THAT THING AWAY FROM ME!
It copies every heartbeat,
Every word I say,
And when I finally turn around—

IT'S ALREADY THERE.

Outro — distorted whisper
“Hello…”

“Hello…”

“Hello…”

THE MIMIC IS LISTENING.
