[Verse 1]
My personality has just been negative for me
It's never worked out
It takes a day or two before I open up to you
And I can't sell that
So I've spent my days alone
My heart is frozen to the bone
But now I'm not afraid

[Chorus]
So here I am, let me be just what you're looking for
It's just an illusion
That's how everybody likes it
So here I am, let me be just what you're dreaming of
It's just an illusion
That's now everybody wants it

[Verse 2]
What you see is nothing like the real me
Now, baby, what you feel is just a little make-believe
Don't say a word you mean
It's all about the way you're seen
Just nod you're sweet face
Keep moving in between
They say it's blue you know it's green
Don't make a big case
Man, I'd rather be a clone
Than spend my lonely life alone
I know we're all afraid
[Chorus]
So here I am, let me be just what you're looking for
It's just an illusion
That's how everybody likes it
So here I am, let me be just what you're dreaming of
It's just an illusion
That's now everybody wants it

[Bridge]
What you see is nothing like the real me
Now, baby, what you feel is just a little make-believe

[Chorus]
So here I am, let me be just what you're looking for
I'm not afraid, not anymore
I have a plan, let me be the one you can't ignore
I'm not afraid
So here I am, let me be just what you're looking for
It's just an illusion
That's how everybody likes it
So here I am, let me be just what you're dreaming of
It's just an illusion
That's now everybody wants it

[Outro]
What you see is nothing like the real me
Now, baby, what you feel is just a little make-believe
