[Intro]
mm-mm
you make it sound so simple
like I should already know
(why me?)
cause every time you say it
I just end up more confused
[Verse 1]
you say you missed me
like it's nothing at all
like days gone quiet
left a space where I should've been
you ask if I'm okay
ask if you did something wrong
and I'm reading that message twice
trying to work out where that's from
cause I disappear
more than I should
but somehow
you still look for me
[Pre-Chorus]
you make it sound easy
I make it complicated
[Chorus]
why me? (what do you see?)
out of everybody
why me? (I don't get it)
cause I go quiet
I pull away
half the time
I'm hard to reach
but you still show up
like it's easy
why me?
[Post-Chorus]
(oh-oh)
why me?
(mm-mm)
I don't get it
(yeah-yeah)
but 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
cause the person you're describing
doesn't sound like myself
[Pre-Chorus]
you make it sound simple
I don't know how
[Chorus]
why me? (what do you see?)
out of everybody
why me? (tell me why)
cause life gets messy
and so do I
but somehow
you 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
that gets lost on me
maybe the answer's right there
and I'm the only one confused
maybe it's not that complicated
maybe I just believe it is
[Chorus]
why me? (what do you see?)
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
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?
(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
