Let Me Be Me
I’m tired of trying
When all I do is fail
I’m tired of running
With my legs securing my tail
I’m tired of the fear
The sickening sense of defeat
The taste of my blood
As it hits the street
Sick of sorrow
Sick of shame
Sick of me being
The one they blame
Why is it me
What did I do
It’s a hellish day
Living in this zoo
I hold onto my faults
And all I cannot see
Help me let go
Help me be me
Give me the answer
Give me the key
Just let me let go
Just let me be me
