What It’s Like To Be Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] How do I even begin? You're all up under my skin Before I speak, I hear you instead Do you think you could leave A little air I could breathe? Can't get your voice out of my head Is there nothing that you don't know everything about? All this "I told you so" is something I could live without [Chorus] You tell me how to think, and you tell me how to live You tell me how to take, and tell me how to give I guess you wrote the book on what a girl's supposed to be But you don't know what it like to be me To be me, to be me What it's like to be me Yeah [Verse 2] So have you ever been wrong? Can you remember that long? Or should I rephrase that question? Can you look at yourself Like you do with everyone else? Can I make one suggestion? Just for once in your life, could you listen to someone else? I know you might get confused hearing somebody beside yourself [Chorus] You tell me how to think, and you tell me how to live You tell me how to take, and tell me how to give I guess you wrote the book on what a girl's supposed to be But you don't know what it like to be me To be me, to be me What it's like to be me Yeah [Bridge] I think it's time to take a position Do I have to scream out or sign a petition To get you to listen, yeah [Chorus] You tell me how to think and you tell me how to live You tell me how to take, and tell me how to give I guess you wrote the book on what a girl's supposed to be But you don't know what it like to be me To be me, to be me What it's like to be me You don't know what it's like to be me [Chorus] You tell me how to think and you tell me how to live You tell me how to take, and tell me how to give I guess you wrote the book on what a girl's supposed to be But you don't know what it like to be me To be me, to be me What it's like to be me, yeah To be me
