out of my mind

I've been gone for awhile Don't plan on coming back anytime soon Might take you forever to figure me out You might even give up before noon and I Can't make you see me in a different light I can't make you see me right Right? I'm not out of my mind I've been thinking awhile I don't wanna be what you want me to be Might make you feel like I'm full of pride I guess you'll only see what you wanna see I can't make you understand my pain You may think my head isn't on straight Wait I was born this way I was born this way I'm not losing my mind I'm not losing my mind It's okay I'm this way I was born this way Feeling a bit more broken than I used to be Cause' time didn't heal heal how I'm supposed to see Or what I think that I should be A hopeless dream retiring Put it up on the shelf I don't want it Let it collect dust, oh I'm just being honest I shouldn't be depressed but if I got what I wanted I'm thinking I'd obsess on a break from everything That invades my mind Feel like everyday is borrowed time What did I miss? What did I do? I ain't trying to hurt you but I do Feel like an echo in an empty hall Endless noise, an endless call I'm leaving notes on every wall At the chance you'd read my heart before I fall Way I was born this way I'm not losing my mind I'm not losing my mind It's okay I'm this way I was born this way
