Here I an in your face


Tellin' truths and not your old lies


Seems to me that you care


And I know that you're runnin' out of time


See ya can't get away


I'll be here forever and again


Whisperin' in your ear


Do believe 'cause you know you cannot win






Spent most your life pretending not to be


The one you are but who you choose to see


Learned to survive in your fictitious world


Does what they think of you determine your worth


If special's what you feel when you're with them


Taken away, you feel less then again


That's right






Chorus:


You gotta mean what you say


You gotta say what you mean


Tryin' to please everyone


Sacrifice your own needs


Check in the mirror my friend


No lies will be told then


Pointin' the finger again


You can't blame nobody but you






Repeat Chorus






There's a feelin' inside


No you cannot change it right away


Gotta make it try


And with time it'll start to go away


I'll be here when you need


That one to sit and cry to


'Cause I'm the you you forgot


The only one you know you cannot lie to






Bitter you'll be if you don't change you ways


When you hate you, you hate everyone that day


Unleash this scared child that you've grown into


You cannot run for you can't hide from you


Can't hide from you


That's right
