Rated: E · Lyrics · Emotional · #1431364
I created it as a song in my head, but it can be read as poetry also.
I'm tired of acting like I care,
I'm tired of worrying about my hair.
I'm tired of giving in when I wanna fight back,
I'm tired of sitting down when I wanna jump around.
I'm tired of the lies that they all tell,
I'm tired of being who they wanna see.
I'm tired of being untrue to me!

I wanna be free to run around-
I wanna be free to scream and shout -
I wanna be free to love without doubt-
I wanna be me!

I'm tired fighting back when I wanna give in,
I'm tired of having to stand when I ace to sit.
I'm tired of saying what they want me too,
I'm tired of being so untrue.
I'm tired of this whole act,
I'm tired of all this useless crap.
I'm tired of being who they wanna see,
I'm tired of being untrue to me!

I wanna be free to run around-
I wanna be free to scream and shout-
I wanna be free to love without doubt-
I wanna be me!

I'm tired of having unshed tears,
And even more tired of wishing I weren't here.
I'm tired of the lies they all tell,
I'm tired of being who they want me to be!

I'm tired of having no one to see me fall,
I'm tired of having no one to hear me call.
I'm tired of being who they want me to be,
Cause they make me wanna scream.
And I'm tired of being untrue to me!

I wanna be free to run around-
I wanna be free to scream and shout-
I wanna be free to love without doubt-
I wanna be free!
I wanna be me!!
