lyrics

I can't take it anymore
You’re standing outside my door
And I can't decide
If I should let you inconvenience me

I feel you permeate
Through everything I am
It's been my mistake
To keep pushing you away
Don’t wanna push you away

Take me for who I am
See through the things I thought I was
Who did I think I was
Take me for who I am
Don't see me for who I never was
I never was... better than what you said

My knees are shaking
And my heart is feeling weak
Is this what it feels like
To have everything you seek

I think I missed it again
Another great opportunity
Am I ok in the end
Will it be just you and me… eternity

Take me for who I am
See through the things I thought I was
Who did I think I was
Take me for who I am
Don't see me for who I never was
I never was... better than what you said

My heart is broken within me
All my bones shake
I’m a man overcome
By every word you speak
I’m your warrior steeped with wine
The man I’ve always been
I will choose you every time
If you let me in

Take me for who I am
See through the things I thought I was
Who did I think I was
Take me for who I am
Don't see me for who I never was
I never was... better than what you said
