So you wanna know me now
How I've been
You can't help someone recover
After what you did
So tell me am I looking better?
Have you forgot
Whatever it was that you couldn't stand
About me about me about me?
Because
Yes I do feel better
Yes I do I feel alright
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you got
To offer
