Why must I be like someone else?
Why can't I just be myself?
If I should change who would it please?
Tell me the truth, is this all there is?
When I die will anybody care?
Well don't tell me how to feel
And don't tell me what's not real
'cause I am just me

Chorus :
And I'm gonna let myself bleed
So get out of my way
I'm gonna let myself fear, let it live
'cause this is my pain
'cause this is my pain

You tell me that I should believe
These things just take some time
Well I believe that you should leave
You just don't understand
Well it sucks to me
I don't need your condescending sympathy
Don't tell me how to feel
And don't tell me what's not real
'cause I am just me

(Chorus)

You're never gonna get inside of my head
I never really cared about the things that you said
You're never gonna have a place in my world
'cause you don't get it, you just don't get it, oh no

(Solo)

(Chorus)
