I watch as my big dreams walk behind me
They trick, they scheme, they tease
Felt like as a young girl I barely knew exactly
What I'd wanna be, what I wanna be, what I wanna be
What I wanna be
And as the real world comes to its feet
To shake my hand, to greet
With calmness and eloquence
I'm infantile, too in distress
What I'm supposed to be, what I try to be you
What I thought I'd be, but I'll never be
May as well just be me
May as well just be me
May as well just be me
May as well just be me
All I wanted
Was a need
(to be wanted) The thoughts revived into the night
My mind prepares for flight
(not forgotten) With fearlessness and confidence
I dream myself above the rest
I'm supposed to be, what I shouldn't be you
What I couldn't be, only try to be
May as well just be me
May as well just be me
May as well just be me
May as well just be me
