We made the world believe we didn't care
We gate crashed parties and just stood and stared
We moved to London and stayed in all year
You wrote poetry and I disappeared
You made a choice for us to live it up
I've got a voice inside me saying give it up
Let's get out of here, let's find a new career
You be famous and I'll disappear
Disappear
(I erase myself again)
I need security, you favor chance
I ponder everything while you advance
You bring the world to me and I just sneer
Standing next to you I disappear
The page is empty now, the well is dry
The song I meant to write you became a lie
You're never standing still, I'm forever here
In your shadow I disappear
I erase myself again
