[Verse 1]
As I search for a home and a place to belong
I find it hard to fit in
I meet lots of pretty girls in this fantasy world
Waiting for their turn to shine
So I try to be Cindi in hopes that they'd notice
But I wasn't their cup of tea
[Chorus]
It's so lonely
When I'm only bein' me
[Verse 2]
Who's that girl in the mirror with hair like a rockstar?
She wants to dance but she has cold feet
Her confidence is low
So much talent but who'll know
When she's afraid to follow her dream
So I talked to her heart and made up her mind
That I gotta accept her for me
[Chorus]
But it's so lonely
When I'm only bein' me
[Outro]
Ooh
You gotta be you and I've gotta be me
Only, only be me
