Would You Want Me When I'm Not Myself?

John Mayer's "Not Myself":

Suppose I said
I am on my best behavior
there are times
I lose my worried mind

Would you want me when I'm not myself?
Wait it out while I am someone else?

Suppose I said
Colors change for no good reason
words will go
From poetry to prose

Would you want me when I'm not myself?
Wait it out while I am someone else?

And I, in time, will come around, come around
I always do for you

Suppose I said
You're my saving grace?

My grace
My self
Not myself, my myself and I
When I'm someone else
When I'm someone else
When I'm someone else
When I'm not myself
Myself
Myself


Thanks, John Mayer. I couldn't have said it better myself.
