Charlie McDonnell - Duet With Myself

I am you, you are me
Together we make a perfect Charlie
And when I’m feeling down
We know that we will always be around

Our relationship is complicated
Sometimes it’s hard to remember
That you’re even there
But when I feel I’m being hated
Feeling lonely in December
Facing hardships that we can’t bare
You’ll help me come through the other side
You build up my confidence, and raise my pride
Together there’s nothing that we can’t face
Just as long as we embrace ourselves
It’s just a shame that I hate you

I hate you.

You’re insufferable, your acne’s terrible
Your sunny dispossession is completely unbearable
And worst of all, you’ve got no friends
They’re just on the internet
You’re a waste of space, you’ve got no life
Got a mole on your face, you should take a knife
To your head, and do it before I do it instead

You’re not that perfect either, mate
In fact you’re way too easy to hate
What 19 year old can’t get a date
I guess it’s fate, that you’ll never find a soul mate
You’re going to die alone, on your own
Making crappy YouTube videos

I am you, you are me
Together we make an
Spotty, unfit, neurotic, unfunny, forgetful, weedy, Charlie
And when I’m feeling down
We know that we, will only ever have each other around

Our relationship is complicated
Sometimes it’s hard to remember
That you’re even there
But when I feel I’m being hated
Feeling lonely in December
Facing hardships that we can’t bare
You’ll help me come through the other side
You build up my confidence, and raise my pride
Together there’s nothing that we can’t face
Just as long as we embrace ourselves
You know that I really really really love you
I really love you too!
Yes, even though it’s vain, I feel the same
You need to be able to love yourself
but not in that way, what way?
