One of Them

I used to see the girls you used to be with
And I would wonder why
Why all the tension when someone mentioned
That you might be dropping by
But then we ended, and I pretended
That it was a shared goodbye
Now it's much more clear why to see you here
Might make them hurt inside

Yeah they've got that look in their eyes and their
Their alibis that they wear like a prize
When they're close to you
And every single goodbye, it gets
A little tighter, their smiles growing wide
Cause they're more untrue, well

I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more
I don't wanna see you again, no
I don't wanna see you walking through that door
Cause I still miss you
Doesn't matter what I say when I'm with you
Or what I've said before
I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more

I hear of parties and I tell them "sorry
Don't feel like going out"
They don't ask questions, it's for the best
They don't know what it's all about
Cause if I saw you, I'd think of all you
Were to me when we went out
And I'd be the same as them when they
Wander in to see how you're doing now

Yeah, they've got that look in their eyes and their
Their alibis that they wear like a prize
When they're close to you
And every single goodbye, it gets
A little tighter, their smiles growing wide
Cause they're more untrue, well

I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more
I don't wanna see you again, no
I don't wanna see you walking through that door
Cause I still miss you
Doesn't matter what I say when I'm with you
Or what I've said before
I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more

I just haven't worked it all out for myself
And I'm quick to see myself in someone else
Yeah, I've got that look in my eyes and my
My alibis that I wear like a prize when I'm close to you, but
I can't sit aside and say "oh well"
No, cause

I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more
I don't wanna see you again, no
I don't wanna see you walking through that door
Cause I still miss you
Doesn't matter what I say when I'm with you
Or what I've said before
I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more

I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more
I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more
I don't wanna be one of them, no
I don't wanna be one of them no more
