about

"Somebody like me" is about the parody of hearts wanting what they can't have. This song captures and mixes every one of my experiences of wanting and being unwanted.

lyrics

Just a shell of my broken self
God I keep confusing Heaven for Hell
gotta stop falling for hearts meant for someone else
and no, it's not tragic
how I gave my all but still nothing happened
still nothing happened

said, ooh love
what do you mean?
You don't see yourself falling for somebody like me
ohh love, what do you mean you're not falling in love?

She always hid behind her clothes
said the way she cuts herself isn't gentle
and only wants to make love in the dark
that's alright we made a pretty bright spark
the way she got me giving it up this fool is so in love
she got me L-O-V-E love

ooh love
what do you mean?
You don't see yourself falling for somebody like me said,
ohh love, what do you mean you're not falling in love?
yeah-

da -da da da ad ada

Well someday, she's gonna be breathing out
and she'll realize what she gave away
without meaning too

I'm not gonna fall again
I'm, so fucking over this
Not gonna fall again
I'm, so fucking over this
I'm not gonna fall again
I'm so fucking over this

yeah, Mmm

da da ada...

She can't be too open
with her heart
she can't even focus
she keeps
bringing me down
evergreen is the smell
of her breath as she sips on her drink
and she moves me the most
though I can tell as she goes
she doesn't really
want to be seen

But I want to see

said,ooh love
what do you mean?
You don't see yourself falling for somebody like me said,
ohh love, what do you mean you're not falling in love?

But, no it's not tragic
how I gave my all but still nothing happened.
