I'm not very good at just paying attention
I'm not very good at remembering things that you say
I'm not very good at pursuing redemption
I'm not very good at concealing the hand that I play

It's the way I am
You'll never change the way I am
Or rearrange the way I am
Just let me be the way I am
It's the way I am

I'm not really sure of the coming attractions
I'm not really sure of illusions they read on the wall
I'm not really sure of the preaching we practice
I'm not really sure if we'll notice it before we fall

It's the way I am
You'll never change the way I am
Or rearrange the way I am
Just let me be the way I am
It's the way I am

Not very good at just paying attention
Not very good at remembering things
I'm not very good at pursuing redemption
I'm not very good at concealing the hand that I play
When I'm trying so hard just to beat you

I'm not really good at controlling my fate
I'm not really good at controlling my anger
I'm not really good at subduing my hate
I'm not really good, I'm not really good
I'm not really good

It's the way I am
You'll never change the way I am
Or rearrange the way I am
Just let me be the way I am
It's the way I am
