I Just Want To Be Me
Everyday I wonder,
I wonder how my life could be.
I look into the mirror,
only to find the same boring person staring back at me.
I go to my room and turn off my light
and cry myself to sleep like I do every night.
What is going on in this hell that I live in?
Why is it every time I'm pressured, I always give in?
I just want to stop and take a second to breathe,
I just want to live, I just want to be me.
