People think I've got it all together
With the show of my sweet, sweet smile
But do they know if I've been happy ever?
Pull up a chair 'cause this may take awhile
O.K. so here's the thing....
I've got my bad days
Some are even worse
I can be a blessing
And you know, I can be a curse
I tremble at rejection
I'm scared to be alone
Sometimes I may be selfish
But I always make it home
This is the real me
I'm not the girl that you want me to be
This is the real me
With flaws and fears of intimacy
This is the real me
Can you face it?
Can you feel it?
Can you take it?
Can you deal with the real me?
So now You see that I am far from perfect
I will fall and I will make mistakes
But I am here and this has taken courage
Will You abandon me or will You stay?
I know that I'm demanding
And sometimes insecure
I think I've got the answers
But then I'm not so sure
I sometimes need attention
A little more than I should
But there is a part of me
That'd give the world if I could
Now that I've gone and let You in
And I no longer will pretend
Will you please still be my friend?
