It didn't happen to the real me
so why do I have ice in my veins?
It didn't happen to the real me
so why do I feel this pain?
Was it my fault that it happened?
No, I wasn't even there.
It didn't happen to the real me 
so why do I care?

It didn't happen to the real me
Somebody else played my part
It didn't happen to the real me
Somebody else had a crushed heart
Should I think my life was torn to pieces?
No, I wasn't even there.
It didn't happen to the real me
so why do I care?

The autumn turned to winter and life just rolled along
You know, it is the normal way
Winter turned to spring, and nothing was wrong
But now when the summer is here
I can't face myself without thinking the thought
that he ought to pay

It didn't happen to the real me
I've been telling myself all nights
It didn't happen to the real me
but still I have to fight the fights
Today I wonder whether I'm real or not
I wonder who I might be
It didn't happen to the real me
when will I be free?
