I\'m trying harder every day
to be what people\'d like me to be
but I am growing so tired
of pleasing people by hurting myself
so now I\'ll be the rebel
you just leave me to it
I\'m trying not to cry
seriously
this is what you should give me
respect me enough
to give me the space
to find the grown-up self of me
to love myself a little bit again..

I\'m trying harder every day
to be what you want me to be
but I\'m not what I have to be
to please you
so now I\'ll tell you what
you just listen
I\'m trying to be strong
seriously
this is what I was wishing for
gave me enough
time to make a misoury
and find that life is not what it should
and love is not what you think..
