Ego Hungry
I met you in The Ides of March: the night that my life bloomed
We were sittin' close on the couch, drunk in the living room
I thought you were kinda cute but I wasn't in love yet
'Til we spent a week in West Branch and made love under my bed, baby
But you knew I was damaged and it didn't change your rules
I let you take a part of me and now I'm stuck playin' the fool
'Cause you're ego hungry and touch starved, feeding off my hopeful heart
You call yourself an actor so play my part
It's too late now, you've already left your
You left your mark, babe
Used to apologize all the time
Even when I was right
I knew that I had to step aside
For your spot in the light
You told your friends I was kinda cute
But you knew just where you stood
Besides, a man who lets his old folks pay his rent is still lost in childhood
I had considered you my best friend, with me through all our lows
But the first time I'm happy you jaded it with highschool shit you can't let go
'Cause you're ego hungry and touch starved, feeding off my hopeful heart
You call yourself an actor so play my part
It's too late now, you've already left your
You left your mark, babe
You found out I can sing and you don't like that
I can wear my own ring and you don't like that
I say 'I love you' and you don't like that
Startin' to hate ya... you know I tried my best
But you're ego hungry and touch starved, feeding off my hopeful heart
You call yourself an actor so play my part
It's too late now, you've already left your
You left your mark, babe
Ego hungry and touch starved
Feeding off my hopeful heart
You call yourself an actor so play my part
It's too late now, you've already left your
You left your mark, babe
We were sittin' close on the couch, drunk in the living room
I thought you were kinda cute but I wasn't in love yet
'Til we spent a week in West Branch and made love under my bed, baby
But you knew I was damaged and it didn't change your rules
I let you take a part of me and now I'm stuck playin' the fool
'Cause you're ego hungry and touch starved, feeding off my hopeful heart
You call yourself an actor so play my part
It's too late now, you've already left your
You left your mark, babe
Used to apologize all the time
Even when I was right
I knew that I had to step aside
For your spot in the light
You told your friends I was kinda cute
But you knew just where you stood
Besides, a man who lets his old folks pay his rent is still lost in childhood
I had considered you my best friend, with me through all our lows
But the first time I'm happy you jaded it with highschool shit you can't let go
'Cause you're ego hungry and touch starved, feeding off my hopeful heart
You call yourself an actor so play my part
It's too late now, you've already left your
You left your mark, babe
You found out I can sing and you don't like that
I can wear my own ring and you don't like that

Startin' to hate ya... you know I tried my best
But you're ego hungry and touch starved, feeding off my hopeful heart
You call yourself an actor so play my part
It's too late now, you've already left your
You left your mark, babe
Ego hungry and touch starved
Feeding off my hopeful heart
You call yourself an actor so play my part
It's too late now, you've already left your
You left your mark, babe
