They want me to be me, but not the me that I am They want the me that they need me to be They want me to be they're fan The one person they think is perfect The me that they want me to be They think I means you and me means I, because you want me to be the me that needs you And if I need you, you think I want you and then you seem to think that I am lower than you So why am I selfish for wanting to be me when you don't know you So you try to be me, but you don't know me And you don't care do you You don't know you and you don't know me but all you really want Is for me to be you, because you means someone else and me depends on who's talking So next time you tell someone else that you don't like me, remember that me also means you And when you tell me that I don't like him, remember that him also means you

To Know myself
They want me to be me, but not the me that I am They want the me that they need me to be They want me to be they're fan The one person they think is perfect The me that they want me to be They think I means you and me means I, because you want me to be the me that needs you And if I need you, you think I want you and then you seem to think that I am lower than you So why am I selfish for wanting to be me when you don't know you So you try to be me, but you don't know me And you don't care do you You don't know you and you don't know me but all you really want Is for me to be you, because you means someone else and me depends on who's talking So next time you tell someone else that you don't like me, remember that me also means you And when you tell me that I don't like him, remember that him also means you
This might not make sense, but it makes sense to me.
