You Not Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Being round you is driving me crazy
Watching you run is making me lazy
You're trying to buy a place in my head
Telling me lines I've already read
Speaking my name to try to confuse me
Say it again you're starting to lose me
That's alright I'm okay
It happens every single day
It's all the same
But I'm not blind
It's all about you not me
It's all about the things
That you're expecting me to be
There's not enough time to live
And all that you're expecting me to give
It's all about you not me
It's all about you not me
You're building my prison brick by brick
Eating your words is making me sick
You get what you want
Cause nothing is sacred
You're reading my mind
And leaving me naked
You say I gotta give before I receive it
One of these days I'll believe it.
It's all about you not me
It's all about the things
That you're expecting me to be
There's not enough time to live
And all that you're expecting me to give
It's all about you not me
It's all about you not me
That's alright I'm okay
It happens every single day
It's all the same
But I'm not blind
It's all about you not me
It's all about the things
That you're expecting me to be
There's not enough time to live
And all that you're expecting me to give
It's all about you not me
It's all about you not me
It's all about you not me
