Oval Opus - As I Am

In a world where time flys quick,
Hurts so much it makes me sick.
How people love to judge,
Everything we do.

Look your best and play your part.
Lack of substance, in their heart.
Point their fingers as if they've got a clue.
Now I finally realize what I must do.

See me as I am,
I can't wait any longer.
See me as I am,
I don't feel any stronger.
See this is me,
See me as I am.

I understand it's not your fault.
You only do what you were taught.
Funny how it seems,
We always pass the blame

Now I know why I feel this way.
I'm sick of all the silly games we all play.
I'm still trying to figure out,
Who's making up these rules?
Now I finally realize what I must do.

See me as I am,
I can't wait any longer.
See me as I am,
I don't feel any stronger.
See me as I am,
I can't wait any longer.
See me as I am,
I don't feel any stronger.
See this is me,
See me as I am.

I didn't know.
I didn't know.
I didn't know.
Woke up with a headache today,
Rolled over and tried, tried to go to sleep again.
Frustrated, underrated,
I'm so tired of being jaded.
I tried to figure out just what I'm gonna do.
Just help me figure out just what I need to do.
Cause no one every told me,
See no one every told me.
See no one every told me.
No one every told me.
I didn't know.
I didn't know.
I didn't know.

No one, no one ever told me.
No one, no one ever told me.
No one, no one ever told me.
No one, no one ever told me.
No one, no one ever told me.
