You Not Me

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 youre starting to lose me

Thats alright I'm okay
It happens every single day
Its all the same
But I'm not blind

Its all about you not me
Its all about the things
That you're expecting me to be
Theres not enough time to live
And all that you're expecting me to give

Its all about you not me
Its 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.

Its all about you not me
Its all about the things
That you're expecting me to be
Theres not enough time to live
And all that you're expecting me to give

Its all about you not me
Its all about you not me

Thats alright I'm okay
It happens every single day
Its all the same
But I'm not blind

Its all about you not me
Its all about the things
That you're expecting me to be
Theres not enough time to live
And all that you're expecting me to give

Its all about you not me
Its all about you not me
Its all about you not me

Hmm, suddenly reminded of this song. Got really ticked off listening to this song because it made me realise something back then lol.. Live for yourself I guess not for others' expectations of you. But of course don't make others do things for your own sake. And then again, there has to be some selfishness in everyone... :\
