|
Please don't try to change me |
|
This is who I am |
|
Pretty far from perfect |
|
But doing what I can |
|
All you seem to say |
|
Is you don't understand |
|
On the night we met |
|
You told me I was more |
|
Than anybody else |
|
You'd ever seen before |
|
Now, all that you're doing's |
|
Closing all the doors |
|
To everything we had before |
|
Baby, can't you see that you are |
|
Drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
You're pushing my head under the deep, blue sea |
|
You're drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
Is there somebody else that you need to see? |
|
You're drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
I can't be anybody else but who I |
|
Am (Oh, oh) |
|
First, you steal my heart |
|
Then, you steal my space |
|
You criticize my friends |
|
My clothes, my hair and face |
|
But you'll find I'm not |
|
So easily replaced |
|
It's such a sorry waste |
|
Baby, can't you see that you are |
|
Drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
You're pushing me down in the deep, blue sea |
|
You're drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
The way I'll survive is to break me free |
|
You're drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
I can't be anybody else but me |
|
I suffered in silence (making no sound) |
|
Emotional violence (wearing me down) |
|
You can't mess me up if (baby, I'm not) around |
|
Darling, can't you see in that you're |
|
Drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
You're pushing me down in the deep, blue sea |
|
You're drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
So much for all your talk about maturity |
|
You're drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
I'm sick and tired of all your insecurities |
|
You're drowning me, you're drowning me |
|
I won't be anybody else but who I |
|
Am (Oh, oh) |
|
But who I am (Oh, oh) |
