i've climbed as high as i can go
what they want from me, i do not know
whatever it is, i simply can't do it
believe me, i know - i've already been through it
the time has come for me to be me
whoever i am, you get what you see
i've turned cartwheels and tried to spin thread into gold
trying to please those who are arrogant and cold
just give me a chance, you might like who i am
but if you don't; i really don't give a d#mn
