Can’t Let Go (Change)
It’s the fifth time this week
I heard you talking at night
About me and my bad qualities
And what I’ll do with my life
You sound hopeless
Every time you say my name
And now here I am
Lying awake in bed
Wanna sleep but can’t erase
Those painful things you’ve said
Cause it hurts me
When you say I should change
Chorus:
I can’t be what you want me to be
You may like it but that just isn’t me
I’m sorry to hurt you so
But there are some things I can’t let go
I can’t be something to please someone else
I grow uncomfortable when I’m not myself
I’m sorry I’m still the same
But I don’t ever want to change
I know how badly you want
To show me off to your friends
And I know there’s so much
About me you want to tell them
That I’m drifting
And I’m running away from you
You know that I’m happy
I’ve got all I’ll need
There isn’t anything else
I know that I’m complete
So let me go
And see everything I can do
(Chorus)
Well, I may not be perfect
And I’m not always right
But I am the person I am
I’ve got a lot more locked inside
I know you care about me
But you want me to lose my dreams
(Chorus)
I’m drifting, I’m running
I’m dreaming, I’m trying
I’m working, I’m hurting
I’m fleeing, I’m flying
And I’m still me
Oh, I’m still me
