I guess I just got lost in being someone else I tried to kill the pain but nothing ever helped I left myself behind somewhere along the way Hoping to come back around to find myself someday Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you To say that it's okay But tell me please, would you one time Just let me be myself So I can shine with my own light Let me be myself Would you let me be myself I'll never find my heart behind someone else I'll never see the light of day living in this cell It's time to make my way into the world I knew And then take back all of these times that I gave in to you Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you To say that it's okay Tell me please, would you one time Let me be myself So I can shine with my own light Let me be myself for a while if you don't mind Let me be myself So I can shine with my own light Let me be myself That's all I've ever wanted from this world Is to let me be me Please, would you one time Let me be myself So I can shine with my own light Let me be myself Please, would you one time Let me be myself So I can shine with my own light Let me be myself for a while if you don't mind Let me be myself So I can shine with my own light Let me be myself Would you one time Let me be myself Let me be me
