Lyrics
The places that I go to
The places I frequent have negatively impacted my well-being.
Haven't been any good for my health
I've been detrimental to my own health.
I've been a stranger to myself
I feel disconnected from my true self.
More than anyone else
I've distanced myself more than anyone else has.
Anything I put you through
Any hardships you've faced because of me, I've faced them first.
You should know I put myself through it first
I acknowledge the challenges I've put myself through.
So of course I know it hurts
I'm aware that it causes pain, but the struggle makes it valuable.
That's what makes it worth
The difficulty and pain are what give meaning to the experience.
And still you treat me like a stranger
Despite our connection, you treat me as if we're strangers.
Keep on looking down at me as if you're up on a shelf
You look down on me as if you're superior.
You treat me like a stranger
Our relationship feels distant, mirroring how I treat myself.
But I guess that ain't no different than I treat myself
I acknowledge the similarity in how we treat each other.
We both got to movin' on
We both are moving on from each other.
We really shouldn't take too long
We shouldn't prolong the process.
If you feel the way I think you do
If you feel the same way, signal it, and I'll leave.
Just give me the sign, babe, and I'll be gone
The pain and struggles in our relationship aren't worth it.
It ain't worth all this pain
The suffering isn't justified.
And all this shit we're putting each other through
We're causing each other unnecessary pain.
You and I have different points of view
We have different perspectives.
And somewhere in between them both lies the truth
The truth lies somewhere between our viewpoints.
Still you treat me like a stranger
Despite our connection, you treat me as if we're strangers (repeated).
Keep on looking down at me as if you're up on a shelf
You look down on me as if you're superior (repeated).
You treat me like a stranger
Our relationship feels distant, mirroring how I treat myself (repeated).
But I guess that ain't no different than I treat myself
I acknowledge the similarity in how we treat each other (repeated).
And no matter what you say
No one truly understands you, me, or us as much as they think.
No one knows you, no one knows me
Our true selves are unknown to others.
No one knows us like they think they do
Misconceptions exist about us that others believe to be true.
And there ain't no way that anyone could
It's impossible for anyone to fully comprehend us.
And there ain't no reason anyone should
No reason for others to understand us completely.
You know you really got to dig down deeper
To understand us, one must delve deep into our inner selves.
Deeper than you've ever dug down before in your life
The most challenging task is to confront aspects of ourselves we avoid.
Sometimes the hardest thing to do is what you don't want to
Doing what is right, even if difficult, is a moral obligation.
But you do it anyway because you know it's right
Choosing the right path, despite reluctance, is crucial.
And still you treat me like a stranger
Despite our connection, you treat me as if we're strangers (repeated).
Keep on looking down at me as if you're up on a shelf
You look down on me as if you're superior (repeated).
You treat me like a stranger
