The Real Me

People think I've got it all together

With the show of my sweet, sweet smile

But do they know if I've been happy ever

Pull up a chair 'cause this may take a while

Okay, so here's the thing

I've got my bad days

And some are even worse

I can be a blessing

And you know, I can be a curse

I tremble at rejection

I'm scared to be alone

Sometimes I may be selfish

But I always make it home

This is the real me

Am I the girl that you want me to be

This is the real me

With flaws and fears of intimacy

This is the real me

Can you face it

Can you feel it

Can you take it

Can you deal with

The real me

So now you see that I am far from perfect

I will fall and I will make mistakes

But I am here and this has taken courage

Will you abandon me or will you stay

I know that I'm demanding

And sometimes insecure

I think I've got the answers

But then I'm not so sure

I sometimes need attention

A little more than I should

But there is a part of me

That give the whole world if I could

This is the real me

Am I the girl that you want me to be

This is the real me

With flaws and fears of intimacy

This is the real me

Now that I've gone and let you in

And I no longer will pretend

Will you please still be my friend

This is the real me

Am I the girl that you want me to be

This is the real me

With flaws and fears of intimacy

This is the real me
