Lyrics
ALL I WANTED TO BE
12/1/07
Gwenevered
IÂ?m not, the person you once knew
IÂ?m not, the child now, I grew
IÂ?m not, completely all that sweet
IÂ?m not, going to go down with defeat
Chorus:
All I wanted to be
Stronger than I could see
All I wanted to be
Letting my true self be me
Why do we all, have to play these games?
Why do, we all have strive for fame?
Why does, my sanity cost something?
IÂ?m not sure, why I even have to explain
Chorus:
All I wanted to be
Stronger than I could see
All I wanted to be
Letting my true self be me
WhatÂ?s the point, believe me IÂ?ll make it short
Alternative, whatÂ?s the better resort?
Jobs are scarce, and money is way too tight
But I wonÂ?t, let it win w/out a fight!
Chorus:
All I wanted to be
Stronger than I could see
All I wanted to be
Letting my true self be me
Bridge:
All things, happen for a reason (and)
Everything has, its own season
DonÂ?t know why I have to live to learn
Embrace the experience to return
Chorus:
All I wanted to be
Stronger than I could see
All I wanted to be
Letting my true self be me
Chorus:
All I wanted to be
Stronger than I could see
All I wanted to be
Letting my true self be me
