Anything But Me Lyrics - Round Room - Phish

I am just a satellite, high above the atmosphere 

Bouncing every thing you say to someone who is meant to hear 

Sometimes on a rainy day, I lie in bed and dream of you 

So blame it on the satellite, when your message can't get through 

I am just a tiny wave, a minor ripple out at sea 

Moving slowly towards the shore, burdened with uncertainty 

I'm gaining power, losing speed, wondering as I near your door 

Will you hold it open for the tidal wave approaching shore? 

You've become an island in the hazy world surrounding me 

Offering a vast reward each time I safely cross the sea 

All too often I become lost in the fog and haze 

Clinging still, against my will, to promises of clearer days 

I am just a raindrop that accelerates without control 

Losing bits and pieces in descent 'til I'm no longer whole 

I am just another shooting star above that you might see 

Until I have your full attention I'll be anything but me 

Anything but me
