You lie to yourself   And you lied to my friends   I tried to be tall   And I thought if I'd bend   You would come over   From there where you stand   Maybe you'd see who I really am   But I'm not enough    And I never once was   What you wanted      The best part of you and me   Was me   So I'll just bow out elegantly   No I'll never be    Who you want me to be   Let me just walk away   Without causing a scene   Oh you're not who you seem   The best part of us was me   The best part of us was me      You were so shiny   I got knocked off my track   I overlooked this   And I overlooked that   You're in the spotlight   And not what you seemed   Creepy nightmare bowed from a dream   I'm not enough   And I never once was   What you wanted      The best part of you and me   Was me   So I'll just bow out elegantly   Yeah   No I'll never be    Who you want me to be   Let me just walk away   Without causing a scene   Oh you're not who you seem   The best part of us was me      The best part of you and me   Was me   So I'll just bow out elegantly   Yeah   The best part of you and me   Was me   So I'll just bow out elegantly   If I'll never be who you want me to be   Let me just walk away without causing a scene   Oh you're not who you seemed   The best part of us was me
