That Way - words/poetry/lyrics
I don't wanna be that way
Stuck in my bed all day
I want to play, if i may
With my heart on the outside
I don't wanna be that way
Hiding from what people might say
I want to let my hair down
And bask in the sunshine
But I'm a mess
And you know it
I'm a fucking wreck
And I show it
I let myself down left and right
No peace left inside
Only problems on my mind
Let me heal on my own time
Let my feelings fall in line
Let me be alone so I can unwind
Don't pull me out until I say I'm fine
I don't wanna be that way
Call my friends and pretend I'm okay
I want to tell the truth
And let myself live out my youth
But I'm a mess
And you know it
I'm a fucking wreck
And I show it
I push everyone away
And there they stay
Til I feel like it's safe
Let me heal on my own time
Let my feelings fall in line
Let me be alone so I can unwind
Don't pull me out until I say I'm fine
Let me heal on my own time
I don't need your help to know that I'm alright
Just let the world know that I need time
So that I can be fine
It's always about me when it shouldn't be
I make it happen almost too easily
I don't know why nobody can see
That I feel so empty
Let me heal on my own time
Let my feelings fall in line
Let me be alone so I can unwind
Don't pull me out until I say I'm fine
Let me heal on my own time
I don't need your help to know that I'm alright
Just let the world know that I need time
So that I can be fine
It's always about me when it shouldn't be
I make it happen almost too easily
I don't know why nobody can see
That I feel so empty
