Description
I was once in a relationship with a girl who had this constant need to try and change things about me and mold me into who she thought I should be. When things were good it was awesome and a part of me wanted to hold on to that, but the truth is who I was and who she wanted were two different things and this song is about dealing with that.
Lyrics
She moves into my place Tearing up my private space And they tell me that she has impeccable taste But I really, really don't understand She'll rearrange the furniture And repaint the walls in colours that suit her She even filled up the room With the scent of her perfume And I really don't understand I really don't know how everybody knows Just how it is and just how it goes She's running in and running me down And I can't seem to find a middle ground But I would keep my hopes up and play With this crazy little notion that maybe someday She will realize That's she's pushing me all out of place And she leaves her footprints in my sand All the while that she's erasing mine She has no regard for my history She's getting rid of every little part of me I really don't know how everybody knows Just how it is and just how it goes She's running in and running me down And I can't seem to find a middle ground But I would keep my hopes up and play With this crazy little notion that maybe someday She will realize That's she's pushing me all out of place All I need is some breathing room Is that too much to ask from you? Why can't you take me for who I am You might just find that the real me is the better man And I don't think that I'll every understand No I won't, said I won't, Understand... I really don't know how everybody knows Just how it is and just how it goes She's running in and running me down And I can't seem to find a middle ground But I would keep my hopes up and play With this crazy little notion that maybe someday She will realize that she is She's pushing me all Out of place
