my inner ashes
Story behind the song
Matt wrote this song because people were telling him that he should like a certain person that he hated and he thought the reason he didn't like the person was him.
Lyrics
Only if you could understand
But I’m not sure that you can
Tired of giving people a chance
I don’t care what you say
That’s the way I am
I don’t understand why some people do the things they do
There’s a few things I wish I knew
Is the problem me or is it you?!
Maybe if I could be you I would understand
Should I try to like the person that I cannot stand?
Or could it be me I don’t wanna understand?
Trying to blame other people
So they don’t see the real me
Maybe the problem is me!
I’m tryin to be the person that I really am
Why do I have to be the person others want me to be?
I’m gonna be the real me
I don’t like you and I don’t wanna know the real you
I hear the things you say
The things you do I gotta wonder
Is the problem me?!
(x2)
Maybe if I could be you I would understand
Should I try to like the person that I cannot stand?
Or could it be me I don’t wanna understand?
Trying to blame other people
So they don’t see the real me
Maybe the problem is me!
