My Ego

And what you want
Is a body
So your head
Doesn’t need me
But it comes
With a heartache
Compliments of love

What I am
Is a habit
I’m the pin
On your jacket
Or the sound
Of your happiness
Slinking toward the past

All right, okay
Let’s be honest
What did you say
That you wanted
From me?
‘Cause I’ve nothing left
But sympathy for you

(Chorus)
My ego, it doesn’t like to be
Stifled, by your apologies
And i’d rather not
Remember you this way
So go back, to your empty lover
And fill her, with some memories
I hope one day she
Matters more than me

All the maps
Point you forward
But it’s hell
Walking toward her
Just never mind
About the signs that say
You were better off with me

What you are
Is a planet
And I’m the sun
But I won’t stand it
So take your moon
And try to love her
Pretend that she’s not cold

(Chorus)
My ego, it doesn’t like to be
Stifled, by your apologies
And I’d rather not
Remember you this way
So go back, to your empty lover
And fill her, with some memories
I hope one day she
Matters more than me

And what you want
Is a body
So your head
Doesn’t need me
But it comes
With a heartache
Compliments of love

(Chorus)
My ego, it doesn’t like to be
Stifled, by your apologies
And I’d rather not
Remember you this way
So go back, to your empty lover
And fill her, with some memories
I hope one day she
Matters more than me

Yes, I hope one day
She matters more than me
