I Am You

I am a sign by the side of the road
A boy on a bike with nowhere to go
I am the shadow, I am the screen
I am you, I am me

I am a lie that tells only the truth
I am the perfect shade of blue
The guns and rice, somebody else’s shoes
I am me, I am you

I am the trace, I am the dust
An alien betrayed by lust
The bastard son, I am the thief of the just
I am you, I am us
