I went to a party, tried to be cool
But they looked at me like I’m a fool
I tried to dress up but it seems I failed
I used to think they I had it nailed

So now I stand here
Wishing it were clear

I don’t know who I am
When I stand still, When I just stop
Trying to impress them
I don’t know how to be
Someone they like, Someone they see
Why can’t I just be me

I walk in a room and heads are turning
They look at me like my hair is burning
I’m starting to think that I should go
How it got to this I’ll never know

So now I stand here
Wishing it were clear

I don’t know who I am
When I stand still, When I just stop
Trying to impress them
I don’t know how to be
Someone they like, Someone they see
Why can’t I just be me

I gave up caring what they think
So I let go and had a drink
Now they see me for who I am
Guess being fake was the problem

So now I stand here
Everything seems clear

I’m starting to know who I am
When I stand still, When I just stop
Trying to impress them
I’m starting know how to be
Someone they like, Someone they see
I’m just being me

I’m just gonna be myself
Why should I be anyone else
