"You Won't." lyrics

I was young and naive
I never thought you would
Talk about me like I wasn't
On your side from the very first time I met you way back when

But you're so brave
Judging by the things you say
Did you know it would all get back to me someday?

Talk behind my back, soon enough, you'll see
That's where you'll always be
Never quite enough to catch up to me

Knowing you'll never be me
And I don't ever need you
You'll never be me
And I don't ever need you

So talk behind my back, soon enough, you'll see
That's where you'll always be
Never quite enough to catch up to me
Knowing

And if it makes you
Feel better about yourself
To talk down on someone else
I'll be the martyr that you wish you could be
Talk all the shit that you want about me

'Cause I can take the conviction
It doesn't hurt at all
It's fucking basic and ancient
And I will take the fall
If it means that someone else won't have to hear the shit you say
Behind the back of someone else in such a stupid petty way
But you stay talking all that shit
So just keep talking
Talking
Talking
Talking
Talking
Talking
Talking all you want

But you will never be me
And I don't ever need you
Don't try to tell me who to be
Or try to tell me what to do
'Cause I will always be me
And you will always want to
Some people call it jealousy
I call it the motherfucking truth

You will never be me (You will never be me)
And I don't ever need you (I don't ever need you)
Don't try to tell me who to be (Don't tell me who I should be)
Or try to tell me what to do (Don't tell me what I can do)
'Cause I will always be me (I will always be me)
And you will always want to (You will always want to)
Some people call it jealousy (You will never be me)
I call it the motherfucking truth (The motherfucking truth)

You will never be me
And I don't ever need you
'Cause I will always be me
And you will always want to
