[Ollie - I'll Be Me lyrics]
So come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything that's broke
Leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me
Damn, I wish that last line were true
I wish that I could just be me
And that you could be you
But I'm still stuck in my room
Writin' and feelin' this gloom
I'm slowly realizin' that the truth
Was never the truth
You told me lie after lie
Like why the fuck did I try?
I guess the thing that hurts the most
Is there's no good in "goodbye"
You simply left me in dark
When you break me apart
When you're too busy drinkin' and
Smoking to ever restart
You see, I'm just the part that you play
All this loving was fake
You sat around and watched us decay
There's no reason to stay
But I stayed for you, huh
Even though you actin' so ruthless
I write to get through it
These feelings are useless
And honestly, it's still you that I love
It's the reason I run
Cause I'm scared of falling back for your
Touch and it wouldn't take much
But see you're just in love with attention
Your likes and your mentions
And you were never loyal to me
You're just good at pretending
So, fuck you!
So come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything that's broke
Leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me
Truth is, after moments apart
I'm beggin' to talk
I'm searchin' for this love that we lost
I'm textin' your cell to feel like
I ain't trapped in a cell
See, lovin' is hell
I wish it ain't for you that I fell
But now I'm stuck in these moments
These moments are vacant
I'm tryna find a way I can feel things
I feel so complaisant
I'm hittin' after bars every night
Just to find your replacement
Seems the only thing that I find
Is my heart is still breakin' like damn
What am I doing here? What am I doing here?
I'm getting drunk off this beer
I may be drunk off this fear
Now I'm surrounded by people and
Still I'm wishin' you here
But you were never good to me
So why the fuck do I care?
Like, what the fuck am I doing? Who
Do I think that I'm foolin'?
I'm writing line after line but
What am I even provin'?
This shit is confusing
We fightin' and losin'
I know you only kept me 'round
For the love you was usin', for real
So come on, let it go, just let it be
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything that's broke
Leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me and I'll be me
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
Everything that's broke
Leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you, and I'll be me?
And I'll be me
Damn, I wish that last line were true
I wish that I could just be me
And that you could be you
But I'm still stuck in my room
Writin' and feelin' this gloom
I'm slowly realizin' that the truth
