Individual lyrics

You put me on a shelf You think you’ve got me picked Like everybody else Always messing with my head Stop trying to make me change Stop trying to make fake ‘Cause I really don’t appreciate it Do you mind if I'm just me? So what if I do everything a little bit imperfectly? Why do you care? Will you be there? When you get straight That you can’t make me anything you want me to be That’s not me I'm an individual You’re picking me apart Sowing something You’ve got me on a bridge But I'm not jumping I used to say hell hi But now I’ll say goodbye ‘Cause I think that I had enough Do you mind if I'm just me? So what if I do everything a little bit imperfectly? Why do you care? Will you be there? When you get straight That you can’t make me anything you want me to be That’s not me I'm an individual That’s not me I won’t be a paper doll That’s not me You’ve got me mistaken for somebody else A nature creation A weak imitation Not myself You can’t put on a shelf ‘Cause you don’t have me picked I'm not like anybody else Do you mind if I'm just me? So what if I do everything a little bit imperfectly? Why do you care? Will you be there? When you get straight That you can’t make me anything you want me to be Do you mind if I'm just me? So what if I do everything a little bit imperfectly? Why do you care? Will you be there? When you get straight That you can’t make me anything you want me to be That’s not me I'm an individual That’s not me I won’t be a paper doll That’s not me I'm an individual I won’t be a paper doll
