This Is Not About Us - Banks

This Is Not About Us Lyrics

This is not about me
I can see you taking it personally
I see you put your pride aside
I'll wait a minute while you try to compensate
No, this is not about me
I see you picking at my missing piece
To the puzzle that you use for life
I'll wait a minute while you try to come for mineAll this distance
Treated all bad
And I've been covered
Second
Don't want to live a lie
Bruised and battered
And it don't matter
Don't deny I've said too much
Darling, ask me whyMmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us

Mmm, this is not about us
MmmThis is not about me
Or the way that you could never play it cool
I could see you wanting me to say
That me walking away was a big mistake
No, this is not about me
I see you clinging to your pinch of hope
Trying to get up in my bed
You should be thinking of a way of moving on insteadAll this distance
Treated all bad
And I've been covered
Second
Don't want to live a lie
Bruised and battered
And it don't matter
Don't deny I've said too much
Darling, ask me whyMmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not aboutWhat you told me
It never mattered
I never needed
This is not about
That you were tongue-tied
And what you sold me
I never bought it
This is not about
How I found out
That you were vacant
I never stood up
This is not about
All the times I tried to prove to youMmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about us
Mmm, this is not about usYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
