Your insults are like lashing to my back harsh and cruel.
You think you know me have me figured out.
Just let me be,
Just let me be,
Just let me be.
I know why I cry
I know why I scream
You think we are the same.
Just let me be!
You expect too much
You wont let me be me!
To soon you turn cruel and harsh
Your harsh words pour out whipping me once more.
You look at me you see a difference.
All because
You haven’t
Let
Me
Be
Alone
