"Change Me" Lyrics

You can't accept me for who I am
I try so hard to get you to understand
I don't know if I can take this pain anymore
'Cause my heart's been torn

What did I do to be treated this way?
You keep beating me down, but I still ask you to stay
And I know that I want to be myself
But you want me to be someone else

It's just the same thing (Same thing)
How you try to change me (Change me)
So tell me what you want from me
Why can't you let me be?

I just can't go on taking all this abuse
No matter what I do, it's never enough for you
And I know that I'm disgusted by the way that you think of me
You make me do things that I don't want to do
And you don't give a damn about what you put me through
And I know you need to face the truth that I'm not like you

It's just the same thing (Same thing)
How you try to change me (Change me)
So tell me what you want from me
Why can't you let me be?

It's just the same thing (Same thing)
How you try to change me (Change me)
So tell me what you want from me
Why can't you let me be?

I'ma do what I wanna do, not what you tell me to
You say you're looking out for me - Well that's a sad excuse
Drop the attitude, because I've been abused
You keep playing with me to see what I do
What do you get out of messing with me?
Because I'm just trying to do my own thing
But still you try to take everything I got
And it just won't stop

So tell me what you wanted from me
Or what's the reason that you won't let me be
I keep telling you again and again
No one can change me because of who I am

It's just the same thing (Same thing)
How you try to change me (Change me)
So tell me what you want from me
Why can't you let me be? (Why can't you let me be?)

It's just the same thing (Same thing)
How you try to change me (Change me)
So tell me what you want from me
Why can't you let me be? (Why can't you let me be?)

Same thing (Same thing)
