[Verse 1]
I tried to see
Well I guess that I'm blind
It's fine with me
'Cause I'm gonna keep on trying, yeah
'Cause I've made disappointment my very best friend
I wait to see
Who you're gonna be and when, yeah

[Chorus]
We don't want you to be yourself, you see
We want you to free yourself
It does no good to pretend that you are free
If you can not see you
I love you but it drags me down

[Verse 2]
I never felt like
I feel when I'm crying
I don't care where
I'm living or I'm dying, yeah

[Chorus]
We just want you to be yourself, you see
We want you to free yourself
It does no good to pretend that you could be
Why don't you be you
I love you but you drag me down
[Verse 3]
'Cause I know it so well
How I never could tell
Who's my very best friend?
And I know it so well
I could make it be me
