The Real Me

[Verse 1]

I don't know what you feel no more

When you look in my eyes

I know I'm the same girl who walked out that door

But I'm brand new inside

Maybe what I'm sayin' ain't true after all

Might take it a minute at a time

Maybe all I want is to hold you right now

With no compromise

[Chorus]

This is the real me breakin' down at last

Hey, it's the real me crawlin' out of my past

Baby, the real me wants the real you so bad

[Verse 2]

The numbness overcomes me now

Like alcohol and fear

And I want to crawl inside you, baby

But I don't want you near

A woman's her own mystery

Not a shadow of her man

But I'm not a queen inside a mirror no more

I'm not a guard to hold your hand

[Chorus]

This is the real me breakin' down at last

Hey, it's the real me crawlin' out of my past

Baby, the real me wants the real you so bad

[Bridge]

Well, I've got no answers now

And I don't expect 'em from you

Thank God for second chances, baby

'Cause now there's something I can give to you

[Chorus]

And that's the real me breakin' down at last

Hey, it's the real me crawlin' out of my past

Baby, the real me wants the real you so bad

Yea, the real me wants the real you so bad
