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 give myself pride 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
The time I spend 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
And 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 give myself pride 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
The time I spend believing
That I'll never change, I'll always be the same
In this world
It's 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 deceive
And 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 give myself pride 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
The time I spend 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)

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
