Me Myself and I
Rachel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How do you feel about me
Oh I'm dying to know
When you're looking cross the room at me i'm thinking about jumping out the window

Tell me what you're into
I'll say I like that too
I'll know it in the moment that I don't and I just said it to impress you
Who are you
What do you do
To make me lose
My common sense

I try too hard
What is it for
I'm comfortable
But then you show up looking perfect and I fall

Do you know
You're tripping up my flow
This isn't my usual
I'm not a second guesser but you're so beautiful
You make me do those stupid things i do
I only hate myself around you

Do you care about me
Should I give it up
At this point I think I would feel much better if I could just act like myself

Who are you
What do you do
To make me lose
My confidence

I try too hard
What is it for
I'm comfortable
But then you smile in my direction and I fall

Do you know
You're tripping up my flow
This isn't my usual
I'm not a second guesser but you're so beautiful
You make me do those stupid things I do
I only hate myself around you

You make me feel powerless
Too easy to give in to your attention
I don't think that I would miss
The person that I am when you're around me
What would I get in the end
Would all these insecurities be worth it
Wish that I could just pretend
I didn't even care for you at all

Do you know
You're tripping up my flow
This isn't my usual
I'm not a second guesser but you're so beautiful




You make me do those stupid things I do
I only hate myself around you

Overall Meaning

The song "Me Myself And I" by Rachel explores the feelings of vulnerability and insecurity that arise when someone is attracted to another person. The singer of the song is deeply interested in someone and wishes to know if the feeling is mutual. The opening lines, "How do you feel about me? Oh, I'm dying to know," demonstrate the singer's intense desire for the other person's interest in her. However, she also feels unsure of herself, as evidenced by the line, "When you're looking cross the room at me I'm thinking about jumping out the window." This line captures the extent to which the singer feels nervously trapped in her own skin when someone she likes is around.


As the song continues, the singer reflects on the ways in which she tries to impress the person she's into, even if it means lying about her interests. She admits, "I'll know it in the moment that I don't and I just said it to impress you." In other words, she worries that she's not good enough for the person she likes and so pretends to be someone else entirely. She also muses on how much power this person has over her sense of self, confessing, "You make me feel powerless/Too easy to give in to your attention." The singer is aware of how deeply this other person's opinions and actions affect her, even if she wishes it weren't so.


Ultimately, the song strikes a poignant chord about how difficult it can be to navigate the early stages of attraction and infatuation. The singer is grappling with intense emotions and feelings of uncertainty, and the other person's actions have the power to make and break her self-confidence. The song is an honest exploration of the ways in which we can be our own worst enemies when it comes to love.
