To tell you the truth
I don't much care
if you love another
because to be completely honest
I've never liked your hair
I've always wished it was light brown

Don't change for me
just be yourself
just stay the same
don't be a fool like everybody else

And I don't really care
so I won't tell anymore lies
now this might make you cry
but truth be told
I've never liked your eyes
I've always wished they were hazel

Don't lose yourself
amongst the crowd
you gotta sing it out
you gotta make sure you're loud
when you tell the world
I'm not gonna be like you

And I'm sorry to tell you this
I don't want us to be foes
and I won't try to hide the truth from you
because I think you should know
I've never liked your clothes
who are you pretending to be

There's no one quite like you
don't change for them
so just shout it out as loud as you can
I won't change for you because this is who I am

Now again I fear I must tell you
that what I say is true
and I don't want to seem mean
but  I know its kinda true
I've never quite liked you
you better change
you better be exactly how I want you to be
no...
Because I'm happy with my self
I love my hair
and I don't much care
because I still love my eyes
no more listening to your lies
and I love my clothes
because its what I chose
but most of all I love being me
now I see
i don't need you here
why are you still standing there
why don't you go
and criticise yourself
you're not perfect
you're no better than anybody else
we're
all
the
same...
