The Way I Am Lyrics

Dimensions of intervention
Are needless so I think
Striving and thriving I see
I'm driving to the brinkAvoiding annoying eternal
Complications destinations
Unimportant constantly
Distorting my relationsFrom patience to thoughts of
Hating anyone in my mind
I find it hard to believe you
Can relate to my kindAnd if I could I would
Pretend that I'm alright by myself
If you love me as I am I'll
Put my pride on the shelfIf I can I'll pretend I'm
Alright all by myself
I'd rather drown than take
Your handIt's the way I am
Skepticism leaves a wrinkle on my brow
Cynicism prevents my change

With this suspicion I'm caught in a dilemmaIntervention with my psyche?
Rearrange walls built to hinder
The intrusion
Preservation of my mental well beingDoubt makes me value the
Safety of my distance
Can it be stubbornness to
Which I cling?If I can I'll pretend I'm
Alright all by myself
I'd rather drown than take
Your handIt's the way I am
And if I climb a wall of pride
Swim across my sea of doubt
Will you love me as I am, the way I am
