Lyrics
I heard the lies
The whisper down the lane
And you criticize
I?m not playing that game
It had to happen someday
Why did it happen to me?
What did you want me to do?
What did you want me to say?
How?d you expect me to feel
When I found out that way
There?s something you need to know
I?m more than you?ll ever see
So do you want me?or who you want me to be?
After all of this time
After all of these tears
I?ve made up my mind
And I?ll get over these fears
It had to happen someday
I?m glad it happened to me
What did you want me to do?
What did you want me to say?
How?d you expect me to feel
When I found out that way
There?s something you need to know
I?m more than you?ll ever see
So do you want me?or who you want me to be?
I know that I?ll never be
Someone I?m not supposed to be
My whole life is ahead of me
And I will be alright
Now I?m walking away
And I?m not looking back
Love will find me someday
And my life will be on track
It?s going to happen someday
It?s going to happen to me
What did you want me to do?
What did you want me to say?
How?d you expect me to feel
When I found out that way
There?s something you need to know
I?m more than you?ll ever see
So do you want me?or who you want me to be?
