Lyrics

According to you
I'm stupid,
I'm useless,
I can't do anything right.
According to you
I'm difficult,
hard to please,
forever changing my mind.
I'm a mess in a dress,
can't show up on time,
even if it would save my life.
According to you. According to you.

But according to him
I'm beautiful,
incredible,
he can't get me out of his head.
According to him
I'm funny,
irresistible,
everything he ever wanted.
Everything is opposite,
I don't feel like stopping it,
so baby tell me what I got to lose.
He's into me for everything I'm not,
according to you.

According to you
I'm boring,
I'm moody,
you can't take me any place.
According to you
I suck at telling jokes cause I always give it away.
I'm the girl with the worst attention span;
you're the boy who puts up with it.
According to you. According to you.

But according to him
I'm beautiful,
incredible,
he can't get me out of his head.
According to him
I'm funny,
irresistible,
everything he ever wanted.
Everything is opposite,
I don't feel like stopping it,
so baby tell me what I got to lose.
He's into me for everything I'm not,
according to you.

I need to feel appreciated,
like I'm not hated. oh-- no--.
Why can't you see me through his eyes?
It's too bad you're making me decide.

According to me
you're stupid,
you're useless,
you can't do anything right.
But according to him
I'm beautiful,
incredible,
he can't get me out of his head.
According to him
I'm funny,
irresistible,
everything he ever wanted.
Everything is opposite,
I don't feel like stopping it,
baby tell me what I got to lose.
He's into me for everything I'm not,
according to you. [you, you]
According to you. [you, you]

According to you
I'm stupid,
I'm useless,
I can't do anything right.

   great song, but the lyrics are wrong at the end!
   “I need to feel appreciated,
   like I’m not hated. oh– no–.
   Why can’t you see me through his eyes?
   It’s too bad you’re making me >>DECIDE<<"

30. QueenB | December 28th, 2009 at 6:16 am

    I LOVED this song from the first time I’ve heard it!!! She has a beautiful voice and the lyrics are so amazing and real. I was in a very controlling relationship/marriage for 5 years (Stupid me, I know) but I am out now. Havent found that one special person for me yet, but I notice how friends and other guys that like me treat me…so differently, and this song says it ALL!!! I agree with all you girls that say this is your ‘theme song’!! What a great one to have!! and I’m so proud of you all for getting out of your bad relationships and knowing what is best for YOU!!! Stay strong girlz!!
    P.S. I’ve looked at several lyrics for this song, and I’m I the only one that realizes the LAST course at the end says “Babe I’LL tell ya what YOU got to lose-he’s into me for everything your not, according to you” ?? OR something like that. Like after she says “Its too bad your making me decide” shes saying she has decided and its not him! HAHA I LOVE it!! Its my favorite line in the song!! Does anyone agree?

    My story,
    As soon as I heard this song on the radio it made me realize that it was exactly what I’m going through right now! I just broke up with my boyfriend of three and half years because I finally realized that I was tired of forgiving him for all the times he’s broken my heart and decided I was going to do what was best for me instead of “us”, which was move on in my life without him, I never imagined I would do it so fast though I always pictured myself in bed crying all day everyday for a long time if I ever lost him but I found the most amazingly sweetest guy on this earth and he makes me smile everyday from when I wake up till I fall asleep at night he makes me so happy that when I’m around him its like the world stops spinning and time sits still I’m so happy with my life now and everybody can see it too, he makes me so HAPPY:) the way me and him are is totally unique to me cause we both try to not mess up haha
    I LOVE MY LIFE!

    i love this song
    i can so relate to it….i’ve been cheated and lied to way to many time….and i really like this guy i asked him if he liked me to and he said idk…and then i made my friend ask him twice if he liked me and again idk and i’m tired of waiting….

    he is a family friend and i ask him about his ex gf….and i’m totally cool….but i wish he was mine….

    everything he ever wanted. Everything is opposite, I don’t feel like stopping it, baby tell me what I got to lose. He’s into me for everything I’m not, according to you.

    like i said i can really really relate to this song….he’s into me for everything, everything he ever wanted. Everything is opposite, I don’t feel like stopping it, baby tell me what I got to lose. He’s into me for everything I’m not, according to you.

    i wish he would tell me if he likes me or not so i know how to talk 2 him!!!!!

36. harrymia potter | January 24th, 2010 at 8:43 am

37. Katie Safe (:BLONDIE:) | January 27th, 2010 at 12:15 pm

    okay so i totally heard this song before it was even on the air and i seriously stopped wat i was doing to listin to it… ya every girl says they can relate to it but i can to and thats why so AWESOME about this song is that any person guy and girl can relate to it! my story is im 17 i fell in love with this boy for 3 yrs and he was controlling and self dameaning and he always made me feel horrible about my self.. i broke up with him and he always got me back with saying ILL CHANGE haha ya that never happend so finially i had enough and cut him off.. i need to focus on me.. and i was single for 7 months and only for the first month it was hard cuz i was lonley just coming out of a 3 yr relationship and after that month i got over it… i wasnt looking for the longest time and finially i met my present boyfriend and he just adores the shit out of me.. and always compliments me and he is such a gentlemen and like he is amazing hearted and he is amazing physical that its astonishing to think that he thinks im awesome like that… lol and that is why i love this song so much… i could listin to it all day.. and everyone is talkin about her playing with mj.. but wat about her playing with santana! i mean common he is like thebest guitar player out there! she rocks those strings!

38. SugarBoo | February 20th, 2010 at 12:43 am

    I love this song I can totally relate to my past experience with my ex always degrading me and making me feel usless. Life does go on and there is always someone better out there. I LOVE IT!!!!!
