The Way I Am

Black and white
Im never right
I could tell you a tale
The bread on the table is stale
Shut up and listen
This is where I begin

I am the only one like me
No one else could ever be
What I am
Who are you anyway
Could you take me away
Im sorry, I got off track
Could we get back

This is what you want to learn
This is whay you yearn
Lust, trust
Mix 'em together and they'll
Emotionally combust
I am all the things you want
I am everything

TAKE ME 
The way I am 
BREAK ME 
Of the way I am
TAKE A HOLD OF
My hand

This is where we stand 
This is when we begin

We are the way we are for a purpose
This whole blasted world is a circus
Screw it!
Screw this!
If you want me
Take me
The way I am
Be a man
Not even kryptonite can scare me
Im begging on my knees

Don't make me do this
I really am new to this
Oh, God!
What have I done?

Just the way I am.

Trust me as I am.

Love me   .   .   .     If you can.
