"What I Am" lyrics

I said dreams don't come true
At least not for you
If they do it's a mishap
You said you thought that too
And said that you knew
Of a place where they made them

I didn't wanna be the person I am
My personality was changing every day
And I got the feeling that you wanted me gone
So I decided I should take myself far from here

I need someone to hold
Until I'm old
And I'm grey and unwanted
So I lifted my heart
And placed it at the start
And that's where I asked you

If you could love me for the person I am
My personality is where it ought to be and
I have the feeling that I wanted to have
I'm only waiting for the moment you told me
You're over it, moving on
Getting old and I can't help but feel that
I'm old enough, staying still
Underneath wherever it is that I am
