Lyrics: I Want to Be Me

 

I Want to Be Me

Doo-doo-doo…

Empty skies now clouds have passed
You look through eyes of broken glass
Then, a shadow closes in on me
I can't get free

Empty faces all around
Hungry tigers homeward bound
But I've locked the cage, and I've lost the key
I can't get free

I've got to go, don't hold me back, I'm gonna leave
I've taken all that I can stand, I've got to leave
There's nothing left for you and me
So, why can't you just let me be?

You tell me, this you tell me that
You're driving me insane
You say, "Do this" You say, "Do that"
You're messing with my brain

I just want to be me
I just want to be free

I've got this feeling that there's something wrong with our love
Can't help believing that it's not as strong as it was
What's that you're saying? Do I hear you right?
"Don't you wanna stay here with me tonight?"

No, I just want to be free
I just want to be me

Empty skies now clouds have passed
You look through eyes of broken glass
Then, a shadow closes in on me
I can't get free

I've got to go, don't hold me back, I'm gonna leave
I've taken all that I can stand, I've got to leave
There's nothing left for you and me
So, why can't you just let me be?

You tell me, this you tell me that
You're driving me insane
You say, "Do this" You say, "Do that"
You're messing with my brain

I just want to be me
I just want to be free

I just want to be me
I just want to be free

I just want to be me
I juѕt wаnt to be…

Doo-doo-doo…
