[Verse 1]
I've never had a decent answer to a single question
I don't say my opinions too loud
I'm always second guessing
I can't take many chances
I just stick to what I'm best at
My personality it lends to bad first impressions

[Refrain]
What I'd give to give it all I've got
What I'd do to be something I'm not
Never planned to be so nonchalant
Now I'm stuck on autopilot

[Chorus]
And sometimes I don't like myself
Can I be someone else?
Someone who makes their dreams come true
And drinks from wishing wells
Someone that they call lucky
And I never seem to fail
But sometimes I don't like myself
Can I be someone else?

[Refrain]
What I'd give to give it all I've got
What I'd do to be something I'm not
Never planned to be so nonchalant
Now I'm stuck on autopilot
[Verse 2]
You didn't have the confidence
You couldn't see a way through it
But look at all the things you did
Look at your metamorphosis
Finally you've found your gift
And now you're on a rocket ship
You're standing there on that stage
All because you had the faith
You're basking in the light of day
A resurrection from your grave
Like flowers in the breeze you sway
But rooted in the dirt, you'll stay
