Thoughts are running wild
Staring up inside
Little white lies and fake smiles
Living just to get by
Doing what I'm told
Just to fit the mold
All this emptiness inside, and I compromise
Living life in survival mode
Born into prison of your vision
I'm trapped here and confined
I don't wanna waste another minute
Fighting to feel alive
If this is the life that I've been given
Well, I'll leave it all behind
All I'm asking is for you to listen
Just one more time
I don't wanna have to disappoint you
Or try to win your love
When you try to make me into something
Am I ever good enough?
Always tryin' to fight for your attention
You push me aside and brush me off
I may not measure up to your perfection
All I want is your love
Your love
In this house of rules
I try to play it cool
Bottled up the pain underneath the shame
Praying for a new day
I hope to God you'll see
Who I wanna be
So I can finally be me
Born into prison of your vision
I'm trapped here and confined
I don't wanna waste another minute
Fighting to feel alive
If this is the life that I've been given
Well, I'll leave it all behind
All I'm asking is for you to listen
Just one more time
I don't wanna have to disappoint you
Or try to win your love
When you try to make me into something
Am I ever good enough?
Always tryin' to fight for your attention
You push me aside and brush me off
I may not measure up to your perfection
All I want is your love
Your love
All I want is your love
Oh, your love
I don't wanna have to disappoint you
I don't wanna try to win your love
When you try to make me into something
Am I ever good enough?
