ME (Direct)

Let Me tell you a secret..
I'm sweeter than I pretend not to be,
I'm less mean than I want to be.
I'm telling you this because it's about time you knew the real me.
If you look past all my hate,
you can see the love that lays beneath
and it's all I need
to put my life back in gear.
It's the only thing I want,
it's also the thing I fear.
I've been hurt before, that pain turned me into a misogynist
though I'm looking for a cure.
I can not stop the burn,
so I'll be waiting here.
Forever if that's what it takes
for the one to find the real me.
