I was staring at my screen Missed the pain in your eyes Never there when you are crying Guess I'm as cold as ice I say stupid things all the time Never say the words you need to hear I get lost inside my head Leave you alone when I should be near Oh oh... Mmm... Not soft, not sweet Not the man you hoped to meet... Let me be me Let me rise, let me fall Let me fight and risk it all I can’t be perfect But I can be free So take me or leave me But let me be me I zone out when you're talking Miss the words that mean the most Caught up in my distractions You're at my door but it stays closed You need a man who always puts you first But I can't play that game I’m selfish I know it Sometimes I hate who I became I don’t mean harm, I don’t mean wrong It's just I’ve been like this all along Let me be me Let me rise, let me fall Let me fight and risk it all I can’t be perfect But I can be free So take me or leave me But let me be me You say our love needs my attention It's like a garden left to dry But I swear honey, I still love you Even when it seems I don't even try Let me be me Let me rise, let me fall Let me fight and risk it all I can’t be perfect But I can be free So take me or leave me But let me be me Yeah, take me or leave me But let me be me
