Five Foot Failure - I'll Be Me

I’m unsure of my place here
Tried to find my footing
Who do I want to see in the mirror
Staring right back at me

I want to see me
But I’m not there yet
I want to see me
But I’m not there yet

I don’t think there’s such thing as normal
I think that you’re all full of shit
Nobody perfectly gets in the mold
They hide the parts that won't let them fit

I’m not gonna cover up my flaws to appeal to you
I’m not gonna mold myself to be whatever you want me to
I’m gonna embrace what I become through the path that I choose
I’m gonna erase your mark on my sense of being exactly who

I want to be
Who I want to be
I want to be
Who I want to be

I will find my place here
Carve my name into the stone
I won’t be erased here
My choices will be mine alone
Fall in between the cracks
Seeing what I want to be
Worried how you might react
I guess we’ll just have to see

And this is how I’ll tell you
In the only way I know
I don’t want to be a man
Don’t want to be a woman either though

I’m me
I’ll be me
And I will always be me
I’m me
I’ll be me
And I will always be me

I’ve found my place here
In between the cracks of normal
I feel safe here
I won’t keep myself too formal

I wanted to see me
But I was looking at me the whole time
I wanted to see me
But I was hiding in plain sight
