Let Me Be Myself

(album: 3 Doors Down - 2008)

I guess I just got lost
Being someone else
I tried to kill the pain
Nothing ever helped
I left myself behind
Somewhere along the way
Hoping to come back around
To find myself someday

Lately, I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's OK, but tell me

Please, would you one time
Just let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself

Would you let me be myself

I'll never find my heart
Behind someone else
I'll never see the light of day
Living in this cell
It's time to make my way
Into the world I knew
Take back all of these times
That I gave in to you

Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's OK, but tell me

Please, would you one time
Just let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
For a while, if you don't mind
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself

That's all I've ever wanted from this world
Is to let me be me

Please, would you one time
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself

Please, would you one time
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself
For a while, if you don't mind
Let me be myself
So I can shine with my own light
Let me be myself

Would you one time...ooh
Let me be myself
Let me be me
