so bright i can't bear it

so perfect i can't stand it

my emotions all tangled up

all i want is for one little chance

a chance i know i won't have

with these thoughts i can't help but think

what are you thinking

i wish for you to notice

but you're too good for me

why do i have to be me

why do i have to be me

the me who's stupid and shy and not at all sane

why do i have to be me

you consume my mind my heart my dreams

but you don't know i exist

i would give just about anything for

one little sign to show me

you know i'm alive

am i alive

so much desire in my broken heart

it's wasted away

i don't have a chance

because you're too good for me

why do i have to be me

why do i have to be me

the me who's stupid and shy and not at all sane

why do i have to be me

i see you standing there

in all your godliness

i hate myself for being so shy

i hate being me

you won't like me because i'm me

you won't like me because i'm me

you won't like me

why do i have to be
