I can't be who you are

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared.
But no one would listen
Cuz' no one else cared.

After my dreaming
I woke with this fear.
What am I leaving,
When I am done here?

So if you're asking me I want you to know...

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me, leave behind some reason to be missed.
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest, Leave out all the rest.

Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shared what I made

I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through.
I've never been perfect
But neither have you.

So if you're asking me I want you to know...

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that i've done
Help me, leave behind some reason to be missed.
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest, Leave out all the rest.

Forgetting
All the hurt inside you've learned to hide so well.
Pretending
Someone else can come and save me from myself.
I can't be who you are...
