Lie to my face
Like everyone i know it's so hard to take
Don't dare think of me
Of just another that'll be your worst mistake
Don't try to interest me
With preconceived ideas of what i should be
So i call on you to lay down your fears and

Take me as i am,
Or don't take me at all
I could never change for you
Here i make my stand,
Watch my innocence fall
You take me as i am
Or don't take me at all

Thanks for the honesty
But in the end you're not a friend
Not a friend to me
No i won't go quietly
Cause nothings wrong with being strong
I'm alive and free

If you only took the time to notice
Maybe i could change your point of view

Take me as i am,
Or don't take me at all
I could never change for you
Here i make my stand,
Watch my innocence fall
You take me as i am
Or don't take me at all

If you only took the time to notice
Maybe i could change your point of view

Take me as i am,
Or don't take me at all
I could never change for you
Here i make my stand,
Watch my innocence fall
You take me as i am
Or don't take me at all
