People think, I've got it all together   With the show and my sweet, sweet smile   But do they know if I've been happy ever   Pull up a chair 'cause this may take a while   Okay, so here's the thing      I've got my bad days, and some are even worse   I can be a blessing and you know, I can be a curse   I tremble at rejection, I'm scared to be alone   Sometimes I may be selfish, but I always make it home      This is the real me   Am I the girl that you want me to be?   This is the real me   With flaws and fears of intimacy      This is the real me   Can you face it? Can you feel it   Can you take it? Can you deal with   The real me?      So now you see that I am far from perfect   I will fall and I will make mistakes, oh, no   But I am here and this has taken courage   Will you abandon me or will you stay?   (Please stay with me)      I know that I'm demanding and sometimes insecure   I think I've got the answers, but then I'm not so sure   I sometimes need attention a little more than I should   But there is a part of me that would give the whole world if I could      This is the real me   Am I the girl that you want me to be?   This is the real me   With flaws and fears of intimacy      This is the real me   Can you face it? Can you feel it?   Can you take it? Can you deal with   The real me?      Now I've gone and let you in   And I no longer will pretend   Will you please still be my friend?   (Oh)   Will you please still be my friend?   (Oh)   Do you see me now      (This is the real me)   Am I the girl that you want me to be   (This is the real me)   (Real me)      This is the real me   Am I the girl that you want me to be?   This is the real me   With flaws and fears of intimacy      This is the real me   Can you face it? Can you feel it?   Can you take it? Can you deal with   The real me?      This is the real me   Oh, here I am now   This is the real me   With all my flaws and fears      This is the real me   Can you face it? Can you feel it?   Can you take it? Can you deal with   The real me?
