Real Me

This is how it always goes
Wrong direction, one way road
Starry eyed, awake until the morning
Blowing smoke into O's (into O's)
We got fire to fight the cold, but (fight the cold)
These memories will one day be forgotten
Yeah, we should slow it down
Don't overthink about everything
Reminiscing over the coulda beens, yeah
I don't wanna give you pressure
We can just hang out
You don't have to share your secrets
But I'll be right there if you need it
I just wanna hear you say it

Tell me if you want me (if you want me)
For the real me (for the real me)
Would my flaws they cause you to run away
Could you look pass them and stay
Tell me if want me (if you want me)
For the real me (for the real me)
When the tide, it turns the other way
Could you still feel the same
For the real me, ah-ah, stay (stay)
For the real me, stay (stay), stay

Let the meter run till its dry
I'm the seeker while you hide
Don't expose the things that you're afraid of
You're not there when the sun rise
You are only mine for the night
Tighten up my seatbelt, let me brace for the take off
Then I'll be
Holding onto memories
Looking for a way out
Middle of the night
All the shit you say to me
When you come around here
Give it to me right, yeah
Sometimes feels like I'm in the movies
Every time you come around and you use me
Look dead into my eyes, I don't wanna hear no lies

Tell me if you want me (if you want me)
For the real me (for the real me)
Would my flaws they cause you to run away
Could you look pass them and stay
Tell me if want me (if you want me)
For the real me (for the real me)
When the tide, it turns the other way
Could you still feel the same

For the real me
I would never look you in the eyes and lie
I would never try to change your mind
'Cos I know what we have ain't perfect
If you stay, would it all have been worth it
I don't ever expect you to compromise
I just wanna feel what it feels like to love ya
I don't wanna hear no lies

Tell me if you want me (if you want me)
For the real me (for the real me)
Would my flaws they cause you to run away
Could you look pass them and stay
Tell me if want me (if you want me)
For the real me (for the real me)
When the tide, it turns the other way
Could you still feel the same

For the real me
I would never look you in the eyes and lie
I would never try to change your mind
'Cos I know what we have ain't perfect
If you stay, would it all have been worth it
