I've tried walking through life with a stone face
I won't calm the fire if it doesn't rain
I've tried bathing in false to avoid the realness
Oh why can't I be the fearless one
And for once, be a lion, kill the voices in my head
Maybe I'm afraid to be judged
Maybe I'm ashamed to seem so weak
Worried that you're gonna laugh
I tried to be unbreakable but I can't stay in one piece
Maybe I'm done hiding and the truth is that I'm just me
I'm just me
Ooh huh
I'm not good at doing things I've never done
Well, something inside me wants to up and run
I'm not great at picking up when I'm called to feel things
Oh why can't I be the fearless one
And for once, be a lion, kill the voices in my head
Maybe I'm afraid to be judged
Maybe I'm ashamed to seem so weak
Worried that you're gonna laugh
I tried to be unbreakable but I can't stay in one piece
Maybe I'm done hiding and the truth is that I'm just me
So forgive me, for trying and holding out my heart
It's not easy, my darling, but I'm letting down my guard
Oooooh
Maybe I'm afraid to be judged
Maybe I'm ashamed to seem so weak
Worried that you're gonna laugh
I tried to be unbreakable but I can't stay in one piece
Maybe I'm done hiding and the truth is that I'm just me
Maybe I'm done hiding and the truth is that I'm just me
