[Verse 1]
you say you missed me
like it's nothing at all
like days gone quiet
left an empty space somewhere
you ask if I'm okay
ask if you did something wrong
and I'm staring at the message
trying to work out where that came from
cause I don't see
what you seem to see
[Pre-Chorus]
you make it sound easy
I make it complicated
[Chorus]
why me? (why me?)
out of everybody
why me? (yeah, why me?)
what is it you see?
cause I go quiet
I disappear
I overthink
everything (every little thing)
but you still show up
like I'm somebody worth finding
why me? (I don't know)
[Post-Chorus]
(oh-oh)
I don't get it
(mm-mm)
but you mean it
(why me?)
you mean it
[Verse 2]
you say I'm funny
say I'm amazing
like you don't realise
how strange that sounds to me
you talk like it's obvious
like I should already know
but I've spent so long
feeling forgettable
sometimes I think
you're looking at someone else
[Pre-Chorus]
you make it sound simple
I don't know how
[Chorus]
why me? (tell me why)
out of everybody
why me? (why me?)
what keeps you around?
cause life gets messy
and so do I
but somehow
you don't mind (don't seem to mind)
you still check in
when I disappear awhile
why me? (still don't get it)
[Bridge]
maybe you're seeing something
I've never learned to see
maybe you're hearing something
in my words I can't hear
maybe the answer's right there
and I'm the only one confused
[Chorus]
why me? (why me?)
out of everybody
why me? (yeah, why me?)
why do you stay?
cause I keep waiting
for the reason to change
but you keep showing up
the same way (same way, same way)
oh-oh
maybe the answer's simple
(maybe it is)
yeah-yeah
maybe you just like me
(is it that simple?)
and maybe that's the part
I don't know what to do with
why me? (why me?)
why me? (I don't know)
[Outro]
mm-mm
you say you missed me
and somehow
that's the line
stuck in my head again
(why me?)
mm-mm
maybe it's simple
maybe it's me
that doesn't understand it yet
(yeah, why me?)
