stories that you tell (rewrite one)


I don't want to be jealous
but I can't help myself
it happens when you're talking
about somebody else
I'm not proud of this example
of my mental health
I just want to be inside the
stories that you tell

I have stumbled through life
wishing I wasn't me
I think of how successful
my other self would be
then maybe I'd impress you
I'd have something to sell
I just want to be inside the
stories that you tell

you have all your new friends
and I know I am not one
I don't believe you notice me
when all is said and done
still I keep on trying
but it's too soon to tell
I'm auditioning to take part in
the stories that you tell

give me a chance just maybe
you'll change your point of view
of all those other people
you have surrounding you
I know I can be worthy
with a chance to prove myself
I just want to be inside the
stories that you tell
