Let Me Be Myself

3 Doors Down

1. I guess I just got lost
   being someone else.
   I tried to kill the pain,
   but nothing ever helped.
   I left myself behind,
   somewhere along the way
   hoping to come back around
   to find myself someday

R: Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
   to say that it's okay.
   Tell me please
   Would you one time let me be myself
   so I can shine
   with my own light.
   Let me be myself.

Would you let me be myself?

2. 'Cause I'll never find my heart
   behind someone else.
   I'll never see the light of day
   living in this cell.
   It's time to make my way
   into the world I knew.
   And then take back all of these times
   that I gave in to you

R: Lately I'm so tired...

   For a while, if you don't mind,
   let me be myself
   so I can shine
   with my own light.
   Let me be myself.
   
   
That's all I ever wanted from this world,
is to let me be me.
   
   Please, would you one time
   let me be myself
   so I can shine
   with my own light.
   Let me be myself.
   
   Please, would you one time
   let me be myself
   so I can shine
   with my own light.
   Let me be myself.
   
   For a while, if you don't mind
   let me be myself
   so I can shine,
   with my own light.
   Let me be myself.
   
   Would you one time
   let me be myself
   and let me be me.
