Just Me

Description:

This is a song that Tegan Quin wrote and that appeared on the Yellow Demo. Tegan sings the lead vocals and Sara sings the background vocals.


This song was inspiration for the song All I Have to Give the World is Me from Hey, I'm Just Like You.

Lyrics:

Talked myself into being you

It seemed easier than finding something new

And I broke them down, did it all for you

No need, no need for thank yous

(Go ahead and change, go ahead and change, go ahead and change)

Talked myself into being strange

To take your very breath away

And I asked myself why love won't change

So I could take your very breath away

Someone brave the waters for me

And for you, I will do the same

(No one's very real today, no one's very real today)

And all I have to give this world is me, and that's it and

All I have to show this world is me, and that's it and

All I have to face this world is me, and that's it

Just me, just me, just me, and that’s it

Faced ourselves in the mirror last night

To learn who we are so when we yell we're right

It's a big competition to get to the top

Common stereotypes put us up

Encouraging us not to stop 'til you get to the top

Don't stop 'til the top and so I say

Don't you ever want to change?

Don't you ever want to change?

Don't you ever want to change?

Don't you ever want to change?

All I have to give this world is me, and that's it and

All I have to show the world is me, and that's it and

All I have to face this world is me, and that's it

Just me, just me, just me

Just me, just me, just me

Just me, just me, just me, and that’s it

And all I have to give this world is me and that's it

And all I have to show the world is me and that's it 

And all I have to face this world is me and that's it 

And to the rest to avoid the mess

I won't stray, no not me 

And all I have to give the world is me and that's it

And all I have to show the world is me and that's it 

And all I have to face this world is me and that's it 

And to the rest to avoid the mess

I won't stray, no not me 

Not me, not me, not me 

Just me, just me, just me

And that’s it
