You know it starts with a look
And then it ends with a lie
I should plant my seeds deep
So that my roots won't die

Do you wish I was more like you?
Self-centered with no point of view

I need to get myself right again
Take time to mend my feelings
Cause they never change, they always stay the same
I just can't blame it on pride again
This time I spent believing
That I'll never change, I'll always be the same

Sometimes it seems like I'm closer
To maybe feeling alive
Some days I wish it was over
That's when I stare in your eyes

Do you wish I was more like you?
Self-centered with no point of view

I need to get myself right again
Take time to mend my feelings
Cause they never change, they always stay the same
I just can't blame it on pride again
This time I spent believing
That I'll never change, I'll always be the same

This world is not so black and white
But it is made out to be
It's a metaphor but the design is to deceive
And oh how they deceived
We have our rights and wrongs
So don't pass judgment on me
Cause your list, well it's just as long
If you dig deep you'll see

I need to get myself right again
Take time to mend my feelings
Cause they never change, they always stay the same
I just can't blame it on pride again
This time I spent believing
That I'll never change, I'll always be the same
That I'll never change, I'll always be the same
You know I'll always be there

Can you see me, can you feel me, I know you need me, just believe me
Can you see me, can you feel me, I know you need me, just believe me
