Every time I look
at myself
I can't help
but see him
And every time I look
at myself
I try to pull me
back up again
Every time that
I look at myself
I realize that its not your fault
'Cause they jumped on
your shoulders
and wouldn't get off
and as I got older
one crept off of yours
and it jumped
onto mine
Jumped onto mine
I never understood it
now I think I do
I never understood it
but now I think I do
Now I think I do
They don't understand you
like I do
You see it
and you believe it
but you don't want to
So just take me in
and I will listen
to all you have to say
and keep it
its like forgetting the words
to a song
but remembering the name
A word here
A lyric there
Anything to
capture the phrase
but never knowing what to say
They don't understand you
And the marks on your hands
they don't scare me;
they don't push me away at all;
they draw me closer to you
I am you
I am you
I am you
I am you
