This is Me

Verse

Please forward me instructions
On exactly how I should be carrying myself
While I tip-toe around your family
And please don’t forget to warn me
Of all the things I shouldn’t say
And not to expose the real person inside me
When will I finally get the chance
To explain my future plans
Will I ever be able to be myself again
I’m mesmerized by your desire
To hide the one you claim you love
This isn’t me, this isn’t fair

Chorus

This is me
This is me
So take it or leave it
This is me
This is me
So take it or leave it

Verse

Please correct me if I slip
If my mind seems to leave me
You understand that I don’t know much better
Proper attire always required
Sunday dinners at the club
This play I'm in is wearing me thin
When will I finally get the chance
To step forward in my stance
Will I ever be able to hold my head up high
I’m mesmerized by your desire
To hide the one you claim you love
This isn’t me, this isn’t fair

Chorus (2x)

Break Down

So easily we forget
That what brought us here was our differences
And how could we rip down these walls
That we took so much time to build up
The deeper I fall the harder it gets
