There was a time I said I loved you,

A time I thought you cared

A time when things were flowing,

But now I'm lost for words

I tried so hard to understand,

In silence and emotion

You take my smiles away from me

With your careless notions

Will you bring me down

Will you lift me up

Will you lift me up

Chorus:

I want to be me

When the night is fading,

Morning's waking

Didn't do what you were supposed to

Do when you said you would do

Holding on while all along

I was scared to say goodbye

Those days have gone,

The time has come now

For me to draw the line

My mind is made up baby

I won't play your game

Chorus

Will you bring me down

Will you lift me up

I wanna be me...
