I know you think I don’t know you That the version I see is a lie That you can never change or grow No matter how hard you try

We're told all our life That the rain is miserable and dreary That no one really loves her Of her, we're supposed to be weary

You made a friend You grew close together Spending so much time living your lives with one another

When you make a choice some people may disagree others may not understand even the people you love

It’s hard to be you to be honest, be true when people want you to change when they only see you as strange

I want to open up To unleash my soul Let them flow freely But I'm not sure how

Sometimes You get swallowed by sadness Dragged down by loneliness And that's okay

There will always be people who want you to be something different Something that you are not Something that you don’t want to be

Not long ago You were always alone And no matter how you tried Nothing seemed to change that

People have always wanted you to be exactly one certain way They didn’t want you to change day after day after day
