Andrew David Weber - Talk Down At Me Lyrics

Tell somebody about it
I know that you're too proud
But you will not get around it
The way it gets 'round you

And I'm speaking from experience
That you can't tell I have
'Cause we all hide it away
Ain't that the truth?

I'm only trying to reach you
When I'm preaching this familiar verse
And I'll take every hit
That you think I deserve
With a hope that some day
You understand
I understand

Why you

Talk down at me as I get by today
Ridicule the peace that I can't find
Look down on me as I try to find my way
I'm a lost cause in your eyes
But what do you see in mine?

We all just try our hardest
And if you see I've lost my way
Help me remember where my heart is
Or you might just lose yours too

We've convinced ourselves that empathy
Is a psychic power made for TV
That we channel when we're high on ecstasy

And if I get awfully quiet
It's 'cause I'm awfully scared
But I'm trying to be brave
Trying to stay aware
That I'm a mirror for another person's pain

When they

Talk down at me as I get by today
Ridicule the peace that I can't find
Look down on me as I try to find my way
I'm a lost cause in your eyes
But what do you see in mine?

Aw, yeah
I'll get by
I'll get by
I'll get by

I'll get by
I'll get by today
Aw, yeah

I'm telling you about it
Don't know if I feel better
I'm just trying to get around it
Trying to get around with you, you, you
Aw, yeah
Trying to get around these blue, blue, blues
Trying to get around with you
