THIS IS ME

This is me, all of me,

No hidden measures.

I like to hide

Deep down like hidden treasures

Sometimes I sing

And sound 

like broken records

But this is me

All of me, no hidden measures

And I really like to hide

Deep down like hidden treasures

I'll take

a step back 

When things

Come to a head

And I'd rather not be

In a race to be ahead

I'd rather not be in 

a place of comfort

And I don't pray

To ever be overconfident

Forgive me 

if I talk up myself

I always zone out

Need a place to digress

Whether I'm too laid

Back or too relaxed

I always zone out

Need a place to digress

Leaving

the things that need doing

Always zone out

Need a place to digress

Treating myself like I'm in danger

Protecting myself

Like some spoilt brat:

Zone out—

Need space to digress

I'll do it, let me be

I won't do it, let me be

I may not do it, let me be

I may do it, let me be

This is me, all of me

I like to hide, deep down deep

Like hidden treasures

Sometimes I sing

And sound

Like broken records

But this is me, all of me

No hidden measures..
