[Verse 1: Eric Reavey]
Well I heard I was dying outside
Cold sweat through a dream you had last night
I'm still rather quiet
But I felt it all the way from across the room in mine
And I know that it must seem like I've got so much left to hide
By the way, I can't communicate sometimes
[Chorus: Eric Reavey]
'Cause I'm still selfish
Every sentence starts with I
And I can't help if
There's just too much of me I don't like
[Post-Chorus: Eric Reavey]
But don't I look like what you think
The hollowest praises that you sing
'Cause when you say
When you say that you see
When you say that you see me
Is it more than the shadows you cast in your dreams?
[Verse 2: Julia Rhodes]
Oh, you don't ask for a rеason
Not one
To tell me I'm madе of material soft
A material comfort I don't want
[Chorus: Eric Reavey and Julia Rhodes]
All 'cause I'm still selfish
Every sentence starts with I
And I can't help if
There's just too much of me I don't like
[Post-Chorus: Eric Reavey and Julia Rhodes]
But don't I look like what you think
The hollowest praises that you sing
'Cause when you say
When you say that you see
When you say that you see me
Is it more than the shadows you cast in your dreams?
[Post-Chorus: Eric Reavey and Julia Rhodes]
But don't I look like what you think
The hollowest praises that you sing
'Cause when you say
When you say that you see
When you say that you see me
Is it more than the shadows you cast in your dreams?
