1.You    look  like  me   I'm sorry  for  you
  You    talk  like  me   I can't understand you
  You    think like  me   You're ***ing crazy
  You    want  to be me   But that's okay because

2.You    act   like  me   You're embarrassing
  You    talk  like  me   You   don't    listen
  You    think like  me   You're  so ***  crazy 
  You    want  to be me   But that's okay because

                     When these             memories  become 
   liquid     dreams       Just like fantasies and like fallen 
   leaves        I       guess           All I need is to find 
   my             desires             and set out to acquire them

That is all my friend

	i love this song so much. the albums fantastic and they're amazin live! i adore his voice and the way he can control it, and they're able to challenge people with the things they say!

	I agree with Brandon's interpretation.

No Picture Will Average	#3 by Will Yost at Oct 6, 1978 at 7:37 PM EST
	I think you can see someone better then you can see yourself sometimes. I also think it's because sometimes people open themselves up more to you then you do to yourself. Once someone is hanging out there just for their honor I think you can start to relate with someone and it brings out the good in yourself which I think is a specific person to him in this case.

No Picture Pablo Rhythm Player	#4 by Pablo Muñiz at Jun 26, 1980 at 7:34 AM EST
	I think this song is about someone who acts like you, who is yer shadow in like.. Every way. And you reflect back on them... On what they do. And you don't like, so you don't like yerself. Or something, i don't know.

No Picture nick Professional	#5 by nick Sutliff at Apr 6, 1989 at 10:42 PM EST
	this song is my favorite Taproot song. However, it can be interpreted in another way. This is, that he is addressing all the other rap-rock bands that are out there. Think about the lyrics. He's talking about how all these other bands have the same image that TapRoot does, but since they are doing that, then he moves on to find a new image and sound ("hanging by a thread for your honor just helps me to see inside myself).

No Picture Will Average	#6 by Will Yost at Dec 30, 1996 at 2:08 PM EST
	I thought the song was a bit more about introspection. I imagine he is looking in a mirror and seeing himself and thinking about his own opinions of himself

No Picture Chris Average	#7 by Chris H... at Dec 16, 2000 at 8:08 PM EST
	It's modesty defined...you're like me, and I'm sorry that someone else has to be like that. He's also putting himself in their shoes, and when he looks inside of them, he sees himself, and it shows him his desires, so he can set out to find them. This is an amazing song.
