This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I guess I just got lost
Being someone else.
I tried to kill the pain,
But nothing ever helped.
I left myself behind,
Somewhere along the way
Hoping to come back around
To find myself someday
Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's OK.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
Would you let me be myself?
I'll never find my heart
Behind someone else.
I'll never see the light of day
Living in this cell.
It's time to make my way
Into the world I knew.
And then take back all of these times
That I gave in to you
Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's OK.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
For a while,
If you don't mind,
Let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
That's all I've wanted from this world,
Is to let me be me.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
Would you one time
Oh, let me be myself
And let me be me.
Being someone else.
I tried to kill the pain,
But nothing ever helped.
I left myself behind,
Somewhere along the way
Hoping to come back around
To find myself someday
Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's OK.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
Would you let me be myself?
I'll never find my heart
Behind someone else.
I'll never see the light of day
Living in this cell.
It's time to make my way
Into the world I knew.
And then take back all of these times
That I gave in to you
Lately I'm so tired of waiting for you
To say that it's OK.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
For a while,
If you don't mind,
Let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
That's all I've wanted from this world,
Is to let me be me.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
Tell me please
Would you one time just let me be myself
So I can shine
With my own light.
Let me be myself.
Would you one time
Oh, let me be myself
And let me be me.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
To me this song is just about having enough of what people want you to be and living your own dreams and no one else's. I can relate to this song and it is a great song.
