When I'm Not Me (I'm You) CHORUS: You are always trying to find, The way to start a fight. And you are always trying to find, The dark side to the light. A circle of vindictiveness surrounds you, It's bleeding into everything you do, And I'm tired of listening when you make no sense, But I find that silence is my best defense. (CHORUS) And every time you look at me there's hatred in your eyes, When all I did to set you off was give you my advice. You wear a frown to weddings and you keep it on 'til bed, And I don't want to know what goes on in your head. (CHORUS) And you can not stand the look of love in bloom, And you make your presence known in every room, You're ignorant to suffering if it's not your own, I know you wouldn't be this way if you weren't so alone. And I close my eyes, and I see you, in my mind, You aren't so easy to forget, I look into the mirror where, We first met. (CHORUS) A circle of vindictiveness surrounds you, It's bleeding into everything you do, And I'm tired of listening when you make no sense, But I find that silence is my best defense. When I'm not me, I'm you, And now what am I supposed to do? *** Copyright1999 Random Reflections Written by Esther Mathison, all rights reserved
