I tried so hard
To make you see
Thought you were smart
Please leave me be

Still you've got a wrong idea
Of what you see and what you hear
Still my deeds are not enough
You still think that I am tough

Perceive me as the one that I really am
I wanna break free now, release me
From the pain I always feel

I'm not this one
I try to be strong

Take your time to find out
What I am really like
Don't bother me no more
I'm the one I am

Perceive me as the one that I really am
I wanna break free now, release me
From the pain I always feel
Perceive me as the one that I really am
I wanna break free now, release me
From the pain I always feel

I have tried to make you see what I really want
You have only seen the things you wanted to
Please believe my honesty that I tried so hard
Realize the truth before your eyes
No disguise
