I try
to hide how I feel
And it ends in disaster

I try
to hide who I am
But no more, no more

Chorus
I try to be the person
that you want me to be,
But we all know I’m not perfect,
I’m just me. I’m just me.

I try
livin’ up to your standards
but it doesn’t work

I try
to go past your shadow
but it seems I can’t

I want to be
who I am
But I can’t
You don’t let me

Chorus

I want you to see who I am,
I want you to know what I can be.
I want people to notice me
And accept me!

You don’t accept me for me,
You notice me because
You think you can make me
who you want me to be
but you can’t, ‘cause I’m me.
And I won't change for you
or anyone else.
So don't even try to change me
Another song I wrote. I don't remember when I wrote it but I remember why. Sometimes I feel like people want me to change, so I end up trying to hide some of myself. But that doesn't really work.
