The Real Me
[Verse 1]
People think I've got it all together
With the show of my sweet, sweet smile
But do they know if I've been happy ever
Pull up a chair 'cause this may take a while
Okay, so here's the thing

[Verse 2]
I've got my bad days and some are even worse
I can be a blessing and you know
I can be a curse, I tremble at rejection
I'm scared to be alone, sometimes I may be selfish
But I always make it home

[Chorus]
This is the real me
Am I the girl that you want me to be
This is the real me
With flaws and fears of intimacy
This is the real me

[Post-Chorus]
Can you face it
Can you feel it
Can you take it
Can you deal with
The real me
[Verse 3]
So now you see that I am far from perfect
I will fall and I will make mistakes
But I am here and this has taken courage
Will you abandon me or will you stay
Please stay with me

[Verse 4]
I know that I'm demanding and sometimes insecure
I think I've got the answers but then I'm not so sure
I sometimes need attention a little more than I should
But there is a part of me that give the whole world if I could

[Chorus]
This is the real me
Am I the girl that you want me to be
This is the real me
With flaws and fears of intimacy
This is the real me

[Post-Chorus]
Can you face it
Can you feel it
Can you take it
Can you deal with
The real me
[Bridge]
Now that I've gone and let you in
And I no longer will pretend
Will you please still be my friend
Will you please still be my friend
Do see me

[Chorus]
This is the real me
Am I the girl that you want me to be
This is the real me
This is the real me

[Chorus]
This is the real me
Am I the girl that you want me to be
This is the real me
With flaws and fears of intimacy
This is the real me

[Post-Chorus]
Can you face it
Can you feel it
Can you take it
Can you deal with
The real me
[Chorus]
This is the real me
Am I the girl that you want me to be
This is the real me
With flaws and fears of intimacy
This is the real me

[Post-Chorus]
Can you face it
Can you feel it
Can you take it
Can you deal with
The real me
