Love me or leave me, but please don't deceive me
C6(#11)
You love the way i fit some ideal,
C6(#11)
See, love ain't all heaven, and i am no angel
But i do the best i can
You always wanted something more from my body
And said you needed something more from my lovin'
But all you got was me and that's all that i can be,
I'm sorry if it let you down
Now it's no nice excuse, but all the magic was used up on trying to uphold
Some kind of tame, flattering persona that
C6(#11)
It takes more than pressure to change rock to diamond,
Now all you have is sand slipping through your fingers
You always wanted something more from my body
And said you needed something more from my lovin'
But all you got was me and that's all that i can be,
I'm sorry if it let you down
But i'm not gonna sit around and waste my precious divine energy
Tryin' to explain and being ashamed of things you think are wrong with me
But i'm not gonna sit around and waste my precious divine energy
Tryin' to explain and being ashamed of things you think are wrong with me
Set you up, you say i set you up
Like i was different than what i am offering you now
Let you down, you say i let you down
And drove your heart around
Did you forget about all the love
And the acceptance that you promised me too?
You always wanted something more from my body
And said you needed something more from my lovin'
But all you got was me and that's all that i can be,
I'm sorry if it let you down
But i'm not gonna sit around and waste my precious divine energy
Tryin' to explain and being ashamed of things you think are wrong with me
But i'm not gonna sit around and waste my precious divine energy
Tryin' to explain and being ashamed of things you think are wrong with me
