See Me - Sam Tompkins

You talking to me like we can't choose To live in the moment I refuse To stop trying to own it, like you always do I try, I wanna stay young, but it's old news Leave me alone in the rearview, I reminisce Will you notice me now Try to cut corners, try to fast-forward Try to get by preoccupied, you're making life shorter So why are you acting, always distracted Thought we were fine, that you were mine or did I imagine? Why can't we get it in the open Why can't you be here in the moment You love to give up, but I keep hoping You see me here, see me now You are looking for something to redo Nobody thinks more than we do Too many options to look through But I see you here Try to cut corners, try to fast-forward Try to get by preoccupied, you're making life shorter So why are you acting, always distracted Thought we were fine, that you were mine, or did I imagine? Why can't we get it in the open Why can't you be here in the moment You love to give up, but I keep hoping You see me here, see me now Why can't we get it in the open Why can't you be here in the moment I'm trying not to give up, yeah, I keep hoping You see me here, see me now Why can't we get it in the open Why can't you be here in the moment I'm trying not to give up, yeah, I keep hoping Why can't we get it in the open Why can't you be here in the moment You love to give up, but I keep hoping See me here, see me now Why can't we get it in the open Why can't you be here in the moment I'm trying not to give up, yeah, I keep hoping You see me here, see me now

Don't ever say you do Don't ever say you want to make me shine You keep your mystery, don't ever try To be my guiding light Mmm... Don't ever say you care Don't follow when I'm here and everywhere I'm blinded by your looks but there's a scent Of heartache in the air In the air... Hey you! Walk out through that door And into that dream Where I met you before Oh oh... Babe, you seduce me You take my heart and use me My feelings all run wild When you seduce me all the time Don't ever call me up I never wanna hear your voice again Oh lay your pretty hands on someone else Somebody who don't know you well Know you well... Hey you! You sweet, sweet talking self Oh get back to that dream Let's both keep it that way Hey hey... Oh you seduce me You pull my heart and use me And I keep running blind When you seduce me all the time Mmmm... get back to that dream Let's both keep it that way Hey hey... I'll tell you once again... You seduce me You take my heart and use me My feelings all run wild When you seduce me all the time When you seduce me all the time You seduce me all the time You seduce me...

I draw lines too quick But I know what's underneath them 'Cause I can't take the risk So I won't try to beat them Time and time again I've listened to my mother But the walls are caving in I think I'm goin' under Keep me breathin' Keep me breathin' I just wanna see the sun I just wanna live I wanna keep breathin' I sail my own ship So I don't let this sink I might fail and lose grip When I'm low But I won't quit Time and time again I've listened to my mother But the walls are caving in I think I'm goin' under Keep me breathin' Keep me breathin' I just wanna see the sun I just wanna live I wanna keep breathin' Keep me breathin' Keep me breathin' I just wanna see the sun I just wanna live I wanna keep breathin'

You're gonna meet some new friends but one will die Then you're gonna be depressed and that's fine You may even find love a few times Then you're gonna break-up but that's life You're out weekly, now you're only 16 On ship street working on a big dream To make an EP and throw it on a CD Then radio on repeat You were right You did everything that you said you would do So don't try To give it up that's what they want you to do Time will fly Run away from you And it's alright It's what you're made to do You will cry But that's what's taken you To one whole night Where you don't have pain in you You're gonna meet your hero, you know the guy Yeah, you're gonna go far, that high People will sell you dreams enough times But you'll read the TC's and dotted lines You know why You're playing those strings in the morning 'til the Late night Putting in work 'cause it's all you knew Time will fly Run away from you And it's alright It's what you're made to do You will cry But that's what's taken you To one whole night Where you don't have pain in you I think it's a shame that you can't talk to your younger self 'Cause a lot of the time when I was younger I needed someone exactly like me to show up And be there when I needed them, but I'm there for them now (Time will fly) time will fly (Run away from you) run away from you (And it's alright) it's alright (It's what you're made to do) it's what you're made to do (You will cry) you will cry, now (That's what's taken you) that's what's taken you To one whole night Where you don't have pain in you
