Ode Lyrics by Room Eleven

Mmm... Gumbo?

0

I was never too hysterical
I thought myself too smart
But I loved your music
Words right from the heart

Well, sometimes I changed them
Into what I want them to be
But you changed something
You changed me

Now I try to be just like you
Though I won’t admit it
I’ve been digging my
Heels in the ground
But you, knocked me over, you did

Now I try to be just like you
Though I won’t admit
Because I try to be me all the time
But you won me over, you did

So many voices all one of a kind
Make me feel unnecessary
But why leave the telling
Up to any one but me
I’ll shout and I’ll sing
Until they hear me
Now I try to be just like you
Though I won’t admit it
I’ve been digging my
Heels in the ground
But you knocked me over, you did

Now I try to be just like you
Though I won’t admit it
Because I try to be me all the time
But you knocked me over, you did

I wrote my name down
A hundred times
But I don’t know if there’s anybody
Who will remember me
Who will remember me

I wrote my name down
A million times
But I don’t know if there’s anybody
Who will remember me
Who will remember me

Now I try to be just like you
Though I won’t admit it
I’ve been digging my
Heels in the ground
But you knocked me over, you did

Now I try to be like you
Though I won’t admit it
Because I try to be me all the time
But you knocked me over, you did
You knocked me over, you did
You knocked me over, you did
You knocked me over, you did
