I can't be myself
('Cause of you)
Mental is what you think I am
(I'm just being myself...)
Why is it just so hard for me to be myself
(And it seems so easy for the others)

(Chorus)
Have to pretend to be someone I'm not
Can't be myself(Just can't be myself)
Just cause you don't like me doesn't mean I have to change
I can't pretend to be someone I'm not forever
I'll fall apart...
RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU!

Why do I have to pretend to be someone I'm not?
(Just to satisfy you)
You're making me hate myself
(Thinking that I don't belong)
Maybe it's just easier to run)
(Away from all this...)

(Chorus)

(Crazy screaming part)
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE OLD ME?!?!
I ASK YOU!
THE NEW ME IS NOT WHO I REALLY AM!
EVERYDAY I PRETEND TO BE SOMEONE I'M NOT!
JUST TO SATISFY YOU!
WHY?!?!?!
ANSWER ME NOW!

(Chorus)

No matter what you say I'll still be me
(Inside...)
You can't just tell someone to change
(Just because you don't like it!)
I will change when I want to or not
(DON'T NEED YOU TO TELL ME TO!)

AND RIGHT NOW I LIKE MYSELF THE WAY I AM!
