i’m not where you are
Marika Hackman Lyrics

I don't know what to do
You think I'm better than you
But maybe I did too

'Cause baby there's a line between
Your faith and what I had in mind
I'm so bored of that

I'm not where you are
I'm not where you are

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind(I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

(I'm not where you are) I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I'd rather be asleep
Than interact with me
I don't get what you see

'Cause lately I've been trying to find
The point in human contact
I get bored like that

I'm not where you are
I'm not where you are

I don't know what to do
You think I'm better than you
But maybe I did too

'Cause baby there's a line between
Your faith and what I had in mind
I'm so bored of that

I'm not where you are
I'm not where you are

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind(I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

I gave it all away for the lowest play
I think I lost my mind (I'm not where you are)

My personal favorite album is I’m Not Your Man, and it has a more similar vibe to this song than some of her more acoustic, haunting older albums

Being someone who once had a relationship with someone just like Marika in this clip makes me feel less worried that the trouble was on me. Thanks for that, Marika!

@Priya Phadtare it's a horror movie, there's a famous shot of the main character covered in blood in the same way Marika is in that bloody mary or whatever that is

So being in a relationship is the lowest play because you give away everything and others try to change you, make you do things you wouldn't normally want to do, pretend they love but actually just love the idea of having someone... Anyhoo, who gets waffles (without condiments) for breakfast and not eat? Yap yap yap just shhhhh.

@Piero5711

I love you Marika Hackman

@hellaagnes8818

Wow! Marika you have made a wonderful and at the same time powerful and emotional video!
I'm glad that you can show bad treating in homosexual couples. We are all people and bad things also happens to us. When we rise we can fight for our rights.
Omfg I'm so proud of my favourite lesbian artist ♡ Wish you all the best!
