Justine Cole Poet I do not know?

Don'T Try To Change My Ways

I'm so tired
But I slept 12 hours this past night
It's you telling me 
I'm not in the right
Do I really need to be somebody else

Don't try to change my ways
I am who I am 
There's no other way
My skin isn't tough
I get hurt too much
No I'm strong enough

I'm sorry for all I can't be
But don't ask me to change my ways
I know who I am 
For better or worse the girl I am
She's here to stay
I don't care if you don't like it that way

Don't try to change my ways
I am who I am 
There's no other way
My skin isn't tough
I get hurt too much
No I'm strong enough

Don't you get I already wanna be somebody else
It hurts so much that I'm never enough
Don't try to change my ways
I've already tried on my own

Why can't anybody,anybody 
Just accept, accept
Me
