"Be Myself" lyrics

"Be Myself"

Saw my shrink today, he said, "Girl, I can't help you"
I've been seeing you so long, but nothing has changed
You tried Adderall and alcohol, sadly the fact remains
You're terminally normal, I'm sorry to say

So I shaved my head, I changed my name
I gave my pills away

'Cause if I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Be myself

Hanging with the hipsters is a lot of hard work
How many selfies can you take before you look like a jerk?
I took an Uber to a juice bar to hear a new indie band play
They got ninety-nine million followers in only one day

Well, I snapped that pic, and I made the slip
I got into a stranger's car
Well, the heels don't fit
I finally quit
And I headed back to my favorite bar

'Cause if I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Woo

Don't you wanna be your own girl?
Don't you wanna be your own girl?
Don't you wanna be your own girl?
Oh, oh

If I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else, ow!
If I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself
If I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Be myself
Gonna be myself
Ooh
