Forget your expectations
Of what I should be
I'm not a doll for you to manipulate
Maybe I don't want to heed your advice
Maybe I don't want to be just like you
I know when I'm doing something wrong
You don't have to point it out for the world to see
I know I've been quiet for too long
But once I speak, you'll drown me out with useless words
I know I'm ******** up
I know I can't do everything right
And of course I'm giving up
So why don't you do it too?
I'm done with all these lectures
Of who I should be
I'm not changing me, for you
I'm done with all your empty words
And tireless lies
You'll only judge me anyway
I know when I'm doing something wrong
You don't have to point it out for the world to see
I know I've been quiet for too long
But once I speak, you'll drown me out
With useless words
And now I'm giving up
I suggest you do it too

Forget your expectations
Of what I should be
I'm not a doll for you to manipulate
Maybe I don't want to heed your advice
Maybe I don't want to be just like you
I know when I'm doing something wrong
You don't have to point it out for the world to see
I know I've been quiet for too long
But once I speak, you'll drown me out with useless words
I know I'm ******** up
I know I can't do everything right
And of course I'm giving up
So why don't you do it too?
I'm done with all these lectures
Of who I should be
I'm not changing me, for you
I'm done with all your empty words
And tireless lies
You'll only judge me anyway
I know when I'm doing something wrong
You don't have to point it out for the world to see
I know I've been quiet for too long
But once I speak, you'll drown me out
With useless words
And now I'm giving up
I suggest you do it too
