Ego

(album: Headlines - 2010)

We used to go together
Looking after each other
I thought that you were better
Look at you (look at you, look at you, look at you)

You used to be so laid back
You always kept it so cool
I loved you coz of all that
That's the truth (that's the truth, that's the truth, that's the truth)

I don't think you know where your head is
I was always there to help you break the fall

And now you wanna pretend that your a superstar
And now you want us to end what's taken you this far
Don't tell me that your done as far as we go
You need to have a sit down with your ego
When everyone's gone and you are by yourself
You know that your gonna come to me for help
Don't tell me that it's time for going solo
You need to knock some sense into your ego (ego, ego, ego) Yeah

You act like you're on fire
Living your delusion
You just need you to take you higher
off you go (off you go, off you go) Yeah

You can't make the call when you're ready
I will not be here to help you break the fall

And now you wanna pretend that your a superstar
And now you want us to end what's taken you this far
Don't tell me that your done as far as we go
You need to have a sit down with your ego
When everyone's gone and you are by yourself
You know that your gonna come to me for help
Don't tell me that it's time for going solo
You need to knock some sense into your ego (ego, ego)

And when its time for you to come back down to
where you started, where we parted
I think you'll find that it is very hard to face
reality is a simple thing

And now you wanna pretend that your a superstar
And now you want us to end what's taken you this far
Don't tell me that your done as far as we go (as far as we go)
You need to have a sit down with your ego
(When everyone's gone and you are by yourself)
When everyone's gone and you are by yourself
You know that your gonna come to me for help
Don't tell me that it's time for going solo
You need to knock some sense into your ego (ego, ego, ego)
