Before You Knew Me

Take a seat

There's something I should tell you

I don't wanna scare you

It's hard for me

You deserve my honesty

I'm trying to be responsible

You need to understand

It's not the way I planned this

Not at all

Are you sitting comfortable?

This is gonna be difficult

It's not easy to say

I wouldn't want you to take it the wrong way

I liked you better before you knew me

You were the girl next door

But you're not anymore, it's freaky

You were Hannah Montana

Now you're licking things like Miley

You were cinematic

Now I made you a TV movie in 2D, so lose me

'Cause you were better before you knew me

I'm totally the one to blame

I have known for ages, I must be contagious

We're the same

And I'm the one that made you lame

Every time I look at you

I see my reflection, covering perfection

It is such a bummed out view

Seeing what you turned into

This is gonna be difficult

But it has to be said

Everyone wants the old you back instead

I liked you better before you knew me (yeah)

You were high definition

Now you're barely 720

You were a health fanatic

Now you're a Ben & Jerry's junkie

You were all about positions

Now you're stuck in missionary

But rarely, so lose me

I liked you better before you knew me

It's not too late for you

Move on to someone new

Stop doing things that I would do, whoa

It turns out my ignorance (ignorance)

Sucks as an influence (influence)

So run, baby, while you've got the chance

You were better before you knew me

You were S Club 7

Now you look like a Slipknot groupie

We were Brangelina

Now we're lookin' more like Speidi (like Speidi)

You were a Peace Corps hippie

Now you're playin' Call of Duty nightly

And hungry for newbies

I liked you better before you knew me (oh)

You were the girl next door

But you're not anymore, it's freaky (oh)

You were high definition

Now you're barely 720 (oh)

You were "Oops, I did it"

But now you're like a shaven Britney

So leave me, I'm sorry

I liked you better before you knew me
