I will always be me

Zwrotka 1]
I remember all those times
When my heart just broke and died
Tried to hide the hurt inside
But the tears gave me away

I failed at staying strong
Felt ashamed for so long
Like I didn’t belong
No place to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
You expected too much
And I wasn’t enough
No matter how I tried
I could never measure up

[Refren]
So I'm writing it down
Just to let it be
When the dust all clears
I will always be me

Gonna sing it out loud
Finally feeling free
‘Cause trying too hard
Takes the air out of me

[Zwrotka 2]
I was drowning in the weight
Did nothing — just escaped
Overwhelmed, I’d hesitate
And my fear took control

Always wanting something more
Always stuck behind closed doors
Repeating what's before
Wore me down, stole my soul

[Pre-Chorus]
I know I need to change
But I don't know how
Even reaching deep inside
I can’t see the way out

[Refren]
So I'm writing it down
Just to let it be
When the dust all clears
I will always be me

Gonna sing it out loud
Finally feeling free
‘Cause trying too hard
Takes the air out of me

[Bridge]
My life spins in circles
A clown in a circus
Too long I played the part
Hiding what I feel

Trying just to belong
Choosing someone else
But losing me in this process
Felt worse than failing them

[Zwrotka 3]
I still wanna grow
Without letting go
Of the pieces that make me
Who I really know

[Outro / Refren końcowy]
I just need a chance
It’s never felt so clear
No more living with regret
I want something real

So I'm writing it down
Just to let it be
When the storm is gone
I will always be me
