Analysis of Being Me, Being You
Being me is something you don't really see,
Just as
Being you is something I could never do.
We are all different bottles lined up on the wall.
In time
We'll fall, when we receive that predetermined call.
Meanwhile, I'll be me and you'll be you,
Because
There's really nothing else that we can do!
