I will change
I will change, I swear
Just tell me what to do
Just tell me who to be
And I’ll be who you want me to
Pretend I don’t exist
You won’t know I’m in the room
I’ll be the ghost of something
That used to mean something to you

This beaten up heart is lost and confused
I wish that my younger self was here
He’d know just what to do
Boy, could he talk
He’d know just what to say
But moving up is moving on from where you came

Stop me if I’m boring you
I’m painfully aware
That you’ve got better ways to waste your time

Say this isn’t real
Say this was a joke
Say there’s still space for me in bed
Cause I can’t live alone
Oh, pitiful me
I’d do anything you say
I’d sooner suffocate with you than fade away

I knew all this years ago
But couldn’t take the hint
You matched my overcompensation
With your own ambivalence

When I got the call I was on the road
Three weeks in europe till I got home
What would make you stay?
I’ll build a mountain
I’ll change my name
I don’t have to breath
If all my air gets in your way
