Song DescriptionThis song tells the story of having someone who looks up to you like you were perfect, and realizing that one day those views will be shattered when they see you for who you really are.
Story Behind the SongWritten about a younger cousin (Jenny) who looked up to me like I was an angel. But I knew as she grew older, she would see that I am not the perfect person she thought I was.
Lyrics
Jenny
Jenny, don?t look to me
I?m not someone you should see
As the saint you?ve got pictured in your mind
Jenny, don?t turn to me
I?m not someone who should be
A role model ? I?ve still my way yet to find
Jenny, don?t follow me
I don?t want you to see
What I?ve seen with all of the images frayed
Jenny, don?t come to me
I?m struggling for sanity
In my head with all of the choices I?ve made
And though I try to be the man you try to see
I can?t seem to let go of all that I used to know
And though I try and try to cover up the lie
I fear the tears as it all becomes clearer to you
Jenny, don?t look to me
I?m not someone you should see
As the saint you?ve got pictured in your mind
Jenny, don?t turn to me
I?m not someone who should be
A role model ? I?ve still my way yet to find
Jenny, don?t follow me
I don?t want you to see
What I?ve seen with all of the images frayed
Jenny, don?t come to me
I?m struggling for sanity
In my head with all of the choices I?ve made
(The future makes me afraid
Of the paths I have laid
From the road I have strayed)
