emily jeffri - ECHOES Lyrics

VERSE 1
Twist strands of my hair while you glare at me
My words they don't connect as sentences
Put me in your folder, draw circles on my shoulder
Hold me close, I'm your favourite stranger

You know me, not me just the me I wanted you to
Notice how desperately I want this
Voice that leaves your lips to cater
To the world's favourite stranger

CHORUS
I hear echoes of things I've thought before
Things I've thought before, Things I've thought before
My eyes close, I nod but I'm not sure,
Nod but I'm not sure, nod but I'm not sure

VERSE 2
You showed me a list of things that I needed
Curled up on your couch ticking several boxes
Put me on your roster, I'll learn and I'll prosper
And yearn to be your favourite stranger

I crash my car into the backend of a truck
Driven by a girl screaming for her god
Or someone who can save her
From being your favourite stranger

CHORUS
I hear echoes of things I've thought before
Things I've thought before, Things I've thought before
My eyes close, I nod but I'm not sure,
Nod but I'm not sure, nod but I'm not sure
