The Way I Am

Growing up my father told me
Son you know that boys don’t cry
Bottled up emotion, always try to keep that shit inside
Now I don’t know how to feel
College when I met you
Never seen someone so beautiful
Told me that you love me
But you need somebody vulnerable
But I don’t know how

I’m sorry for the way that I am
Got problems that I don’t understand
Every time you ask me babe, are you alright?
Then I stop like a deer in the headlights

Thinking that you’ll just get mad

I’m sorry for the way that I am
Got issues that I don’t understand
So every time you ask me babe, are you alright?
Then I stop like a deer in the headlights

I’m scared to love you like that
So sorry for the way I am
The way I am, the way I am
So sorry for the way I am
Don’t expect you to stay
