You look at me, what do you see? A puzzle, righton mystery? Stay away from the obvius Never in the middle So many sleepless nights, wondering aloud If you're through with me, haunting my very dreams Twisted little worms swimming in my brain Pieces of misery I have no wish to play 'Cause I am what I am Take it or leave it And I'm proud to be my own belief Take it or leave it Pierce through my veins, stronger than hate Desire is true and I make my own fate I won't give it up, refuse to give it in No need to adjust Forever true to myself Shut the judgmental eyes A silent storm echoes inside Not a word Not a chance I am what I am 'Cause I am what I am Take it or leave it And I'm proud to be my own belief Take it or leave it
