Nothing Like Me

Verse 1 I see you at work, pretending we’re strangers, But your green eyes flicker like they still remember. Light brown hair, new cut that no one likes But I swear it suits you, I’d never say it. We matched once, talked once, You wanted something easy. A hookup that never happened, Still you linger in me. Pre-Chorus And every time the bass hits in the club, You stare like you’re trying to read my mind. But you never move closer, never say a word — Just look at me like I’m almost enough. Chorus But you like a girl who’s nothing like me, Blonde hair, bright smile, everything I’m not And I catch myself thinking if I changed my face, Changed my hair, changed my ways — would you look my way. i see you in my dreams but you probably dont see the same i thought that you liked me but You like a girl who’s nothing like me. Verse 2 I see you in the club with your best mate laughing, Not with her — but you still dont talk to me. I’m brunette, quiet, not the type you chase, But you still watch me like I’m someone you almost see. And I hate how I care, how it twists in my chest, How I’d change myself just to fit what you expect. You look at me like a thought you never say, Then look away like I’m nothing you’d ever claim. Pre-Chorus And every time the lights spin overhead, I think about the things I never said. But we never step forward, never take the risk — Just keep standing there with a stare that doesnt stick. Chorus ’Cause you like a girl who’s nothing like me, Blonde hair, bright smile, everything I’m not And I catch myself thinking if I changed my face, Changed my hair, changed my ways — would you look my way. i see you in my dreams but you probably dont see the same i thought that you liked me but You like a girl who’s nothing like me. Bridge Maybe it’s nothing, maybe it’s just me, Reading into looks that don’t mean anything. I keep wondering if you ever think of me too, Or if I’m just a face you glance at in the room. Final Chorus You like a girl who’s nothing like me — And that’s fine, I’m never the one to be seen. I won’t change my face, won’t change my hair, Won’t change my soul just to make you care. If you ever look my way for real, You’ll see the same beauty ive always been one day will you like a girl like me.
