Why won't you accept me
For who I am?
Why can't you just
Try to understand?
I'll tell you how I really feel
And you'll yell at me again
Telling me to stop being stupid
And that it's not OK
I feel I'll never be good enough
That you'll always expect more from me
Just because my values aren't the same as yours
Doesn't give you the right to look down on me
I'll try to tell you what I want to do with my life
And you'll say I am wasting my time
You don't care if that's what I want to do
Why can't you just be nice?
I don't bother telling you my dreams anymore
Because you just yell at me
I don't tell you how I feel anymore
You'll just say to hell with me
I'm falling to pieces because of you
But you just don't understand
But I guess I'm just asking too much
For you to just accept who I am
