Lyrics
Come as You Are
Davidson © 2008
I'm tired of living this life-
acting out someone's dreams
I'm tired of living this life-
Cause I'm stuck in between
Where I'm making a living
And faking my way
and losing my soul a bit more every day
I need a place where I can come, where you come, just come as you are-
No expectations, no presumptions
Let my hair down and be me and dump my defenses
be easy and free and drop down my guard
I'll meet you on my terms, if you'll agree
To just come as you are.
Don't need no Gucci gold handbag
Keep your stretch limousine
Its time to trade down Versace
Find me some comfortable jeans
And I'm tired of the makeup and preening my hair
and straining my neck with my nose in the air
I need a place where
I can come, where you come, you just come as you are- (CH
I'm frustrated, this game I've been playing
I'm tired, and this image is so overrated
Disgusted, been caught in these lies
Tear off this disguise
Find out, let out what's inside
Got no Tiffany earrings
Never touch caviar
I'm gonna find me a corner
Cozy, comfortable bar
Where no ones' a stranger
And I don't appear
To be anyone but just myself drinking beer
I need a place where
I can come, where you come, you just come as you are- (CH
Just Come as You Are
