• Let me be myself, so I can shine,
    In my own light.
    Just let me be myself,
    Because in the end I'll break free and rise
    Above this place and all
    These people.

    You brought me down with every single word
    You could throw at me.
    Telling me I'm worthless and stupid.
    Well I will break free and give my own light
    A new life, in the end.

    You used to be mine,
    Forever mine always to be.
    But shattered and broken we'll be
    Because of you,
    And holding me back from my true
    Potential.

    Just let me be myself,
    So I can shine in my own light.
    Let me be myself, because I need to be free.
    You told me to forget the past and
    Now I'm sitting here,
    Bleeding out cause it's apart of me.

    I can't let go what's apart of me,
    My life and my soul.
    Give me but a reason why I should give it all
    To you? WHen you tell me to
    Let it all go, when I give my life to do so.

    When I lay dying, looking up at the sky
    And your standing above me asking me why,
    Why I did it. And I tell you,
    Let me be myself, so I can shine.
    In my own light, just let me be.

    Why didn't you just let it go?
    And I tell you, it's apart of me and it will never
    Leave me unless I die.
    Still bleeding, are you guilty?
    Why couldn't you just let me be?

    And let me shine,
    But here I am letting go, and I'm dying.
    All for you, because that is what
    Love is. Letting go, and moving on.
    So I shine my light and
    I let go.

    Don't you feel guilty?
    For killing me in the end, you told me
    To let it go, instead of letting me
    Be how I am, myself.
    And shining my own light.
    But instead I shine for you, always
    And forever.

    I let you go.
