More Like You
I love the way you sing
Oh I've been trying copy every word you say
I love the way you think
You have this way of knowing it'll be ok
Where'd you get that confidence from? Cause you wear it like a coat
All this feeling second best
Oh it's got me by the throat
I know
That I've been obsessing in the worst way
I heard it from a woman on the internet
She told me to eat well and try to love myself
Then maybe I won't wish that I was someone else
(Tell me how)
To be more like you
Look I don't wanna fight
No I just wanna swap our bodies for a day
Imagine I could drive
With the top down
back and forth across LA
And every time she mentions your name
She says it like a prayer
Getting caught up on the syllables
I wish I didn't care
But no
Maybe I'm the one she had to outgrow
I heard it from a woman on the internet
She told me to eat well and try to love myself
Then maybe I won't wish that I was someone else
(Tell me how)
I know that I've been flirting with the enemy
But please don't be so perfect right in front of me
I think of all the things that I will never be
(Tell me how)
Tell me how to be more like you
And look
It's true, true, true, true
I got these insecurities
They're all mine, there's nothing you can do
And look
It's true, true, true, true
The other day I caught myself just looking at pictures of you
I heard it from a woman on the internet
She told me to live a life of no regret
So maybe I won't take you on as such a threat
(Tell me how)
I know that I've been flirting with the enemy
But please don't be so perfect right in front of me
I think of all the things that I will never be
(Tell me how)
Tell me how to be more like you
