I Am Not The Girl

You try, you fail

You make a bad impression

I cry, you bail

A sticky situation

I know you know

It's your infatuation

You stay, I'll go



I am not the girl

You thought I would be

I will never be

So get over me

I am not the girl

I'm going to be

Nothing more to say



My wings, they grow

Call it evolution

Some things move slow

With determination

You ask, you pry

It's your desolation

You wonder why



I am not the girl

You thought I would be

I will never be

So get over me

I am not the girl

I'm going to be



You can't deal with change

You can't handle me

You won't let me be



Why do I have to hear you say those things

Over and over like I'm not this and I'm not that?

How many times do I have to listen to you

Try to make me be something that I'm not?

Why am I not this way

Why can't I do the things you want me to do?

Why can't I talk like you want me to talk?

Well, I'm tired of trying to make myself be

Who you want me to be

I am me



I don't foresee any resolution

You won'y agree

Unfavorable reception

I know I need

Out of this attrition

Do you hear me?



I am not the girl

You thought I would be

I will never be

So get over me

I am not the girl

I'm going to be



I am not the girl

You thought I would be

I will never be

So get over me

I am not the girl

I'm going to be
