I Can't Be the One
I'm content, I am at peace
I don't expect anything
I don't get the way you look at me
As if I owe you something
Your opinion of me is not my responsibility
I can't reach the standards that you have set for me
But you know that I'd be whatever you want me to be
Whatever you need me to be
If I could
But your perception of me is not a reality
I can't be the one that you want me to be
The one you expect me to be
Just trust that if you could see what I see
You'd know that it's not meant to be
And if you need a savior, don't look at me
'Cause I'm not the one who died on that tree
But if you need a friend I could keep you company
But don't bother if you're just using me
You look around yourself and no one hears your cry
And in an open sea you're not the only one who's sinking
But you know that I'd be whatever you want me to be
Whatever you need me to be
If I could
But your perception of me is not a reality
I can't be the one that you want me to be
The one you expect me to be
Just trust that if you could see what I see
You'd know that it's not meant to be
But you know that I'd be whatever you want me to be
Whatever you need me to be
If I could
But your perception of me is not a reality
I can't be the one that you want me to be
The one you expect me to be
Just trust that if you could see what I see
You'd know that it's not meant to be
I'm content, I am at peace
I don't expect anything
I don't expect anything
I don't get the way you look at me
As if I owe you something
Your opinion of me is not my responsibility
I can't reach the standards that you have set for me
But you know that I'd be whatever you want me to be
Whatever you need me to be
If I could
But your perception of me is not a reality
I can't be the one that you want me to be
The one you expect me to be
Just trust that if you could see what I see
You'd know that it's not meant to be
And if you need a savior, don't look at me
'Cause I'm not the one who died on that tree
But if you need a friend I could keep you company
But don't bother if you're just using me
You look around yourself and no one hears your cry
And in an open sea you're not the only one who's sinking
But you know that I'd be whatever you want me to be
Whatever you need me to be
If I could
But your perception of me is not a reality
I can't be the one that you want me to be
The one you expect me to be
Just trust that if you could see what I see
You'd know that it's not meant to be
But you know that I'd be whatever you want me to be
Whatever you need me to be
If I could
But your perception of me is not a reality
I can't be the one that you want me to be
The one you expect me to be
Just trust that if you could see what I see
You'd know that it's not meant to be
I'm content, I am at peace
I don't expect anything
