[Intro]
[Verse 1]
i could never find the power to love
voice of reasons always giving up on me
i could never find the power to leave
fear of change is always catching up with me
[Pre-Chorus]
it s over again and it s started again
swear i hurt you with the best intentions
and it s over again and it s started again
swear my conscience needs an intervention
[Chorus]
i ve been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
won t you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
[Verse 2]
i could never find the power to lie
even when i did the guilt would catch my eye
i could never find the power to see
all the blessings that had been shone down on me
[Pre-Chorus]
it s over again and it s started again
swear i hurt you with the best intentions
and it s over again and it s started again
swear my conscience needs an intervention
[Chorus]
i ve been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
won t you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
i ve been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
won t you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
[Bridge]
and we re strangers again
yeah we re strangers again
seeing everyone through clouds of emotion
and we re strangers again
yeah we re strangers again
breaking everything but all in slow motion
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
i ve been trying to change myself again
won t you please just take me as i am
i ve been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
won t you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
i ve been trying to change myself again (i try, i try, i try)
won t you please just take me as i am (i am, i am, i am)
[Outro]
i could never find the power to know
guess i ll figure it out on my own
