There was a time I said I loved you,
A time I thought you cared
A time when things were flowing,
But now I'm lost for words

I tried so hard to understand,
In silence and emotion
You take my smiles away from me
With your careless notions

Will you bring me down
Will you lift me up - will you lift me up

Refrain:
I want to be me
When the night is fading, morning's waking

Didn't do what you were supposed to
Do when you said you would do
Holding on while all along
I was scared to say goodbye

Those days have gone, the time has come now
For me to draw the line
My mind is made up baby
I won't play your game

Refrain

Will you bring me down
Will you lift me up

I wanna be me
