lyrics

You thought you knew me,
but you don’t know anything,
nothing at all.

You had an idea,
of what I would be to you,
so that’s all you saw in me.

Who do I need to be,
for you to see,
who I really am.
When will it be ok,
for me to say,
what’s really on my mind.

Who will you want,
when you’re lying in bed with me,
tonight.

But that’s ok because,
I would never be enough,
and I don’t even want you that bad.

Who do I need to be,
for you to see,
who I really am.
When will it be ok,
for me to say,
what’s really on my mind.

Put me in the backseat,
tell me what you want from me.
Can you see, you and me,
Or is vision lost in…
He is who you want to be
with and it is what you need
so you go, now I know
but I’ll ask you…

What would it mean to you,
if I changed who I was for you,
would you even care?

What if I stayed the same,
would you still call out my name,
when you need somebody by your side?

Who do I need to be,
for you to see,
who I really am.
When will it be ok,
for me to say,
what’s really on my mind.

Who do I need to be,
for you to see,
who I really am.
When will it be ok,
for me to say,
what’s really on my mind.
