Ego

From Uneasy Laughter2020

Written by Sean Solomon,

Lyrics

Ego

The highest high, the lowest low I wanna lose my ego It's easier to complain But there is beauty in the mundane

If God is real, you are not them If God is real, well, you are not them

I wanna be anybody but myself I wanna love anybody but myself I wanna be anybody but myself I wanna love anybody but myself

We used to care, but we forgot Have more in common than we do not What part of you relates to me Narcissism is not empathy

If God is real, you are not them If God is real, well, you are not them

I wanna be anybody but myself I wanna love anybody but myself I wanna be anybody but myself I wanna love anybody but myself

I wanna be anybody but myself I wanna love anybody but myself I wanna be anybody but myself I wanna love anybody but myself
