Lyrics
Don't ask me how I am
If you
don't want the complicated type
Of answer that could make you feel bad
Don't say you're fine, I know you're lying
.
Don't run and hide behind that smile,
Don't turn your back, if you hate to be alone
Maybe it's right to think
We deserve better
If we try we'll find many reasons why
Though we're not alike
We still feel the same things
The same things
We don't have to give up,
we don't have to change
If we understand
The same things
Don’t believe in me coz I don't
Think
that I can stand to fail you
I don't think I'll ever meet the expectations
Don't try to be somebody else
I love you for who you are
If only you would see you through my eyes
Maybe it's right to think
We deserve better
If we try we'll find many reasons why
Though we're not alike
We still feel the same things
The same things
We don't have to give up,
we don't have to change
If we understand
The same things
Don't, just don't
Don't give up on yourself
Don't, just don't
Don't give up now
Don't, just don't
Don't give up on yourself
Don't, just don't
Don't give up now
