In My Own Prison
Kate's Song
Don't look away from me,
I hate to be nothing in your eyes,
I know you can't understand,
Everything I say or do,
But don't analyze...me,
I'm my own prison,
When I whisper in the dark,
Are you hearing what I say?
Do you even think about me,
When I'm far away, across the ocean?
Please try to love me for who I am,
But you don't know who I am,
Please try to love me for who I tried to be,
I don't know what I tried to be,
I can't stand to look at you...
Looking at me...
Chorus
I was a woman,
With the strength of a man,
Trying to be someone,
I didn't understand,
And I was fighting a war,
A war within myself,
Please try to love me,
For who I am,
When you look past your shoulder,
Past the chip that you bear,
Try to think about the good,
Please know I tried to be there when I could,
Please try to love me for who I am,
But you don't know who I am,
Please try to love me for who I tried to be,
I don't know what I tried to be,
I can't stand to look at you...
Looking at me...
Chorus
Don't look away from me,
I hate to be nothing in your eyes,
I know you can't understand,
Everything I say or do,
But don't analyze...me,
I'm lost...
I'm my own prison...
