Another jam packed day
Of everybody on the planet
Telling me to cram it
Telling me I'm not okay
Another troubled little failure
Dangerous behavior
Why can't they just behave
Another silly little misfit, trying to be different
Look at the clothes they wear
The definition of an outcast
Bottom on the cool graph
Skinny jeans and pink hair

I know that I might be a little bit overwhelming
And I know that you think something must be wrong inside my head
Let go, I'm gonna chase my dreams and pray for a happy ending
You can take me or leave me
Just the way I, just the way I am

They say I might be sick
A psychological condition
Difficult musician
Doesn't want to fall in line
Another sticky situation
Insubordination, keep it contained this time
A personality disorder
Put him in the corner
Hook up on the dollar sign
We'll tell him money is the answer
Music is the cancer
Prove it all on Dateline

I know that I might be a little bit overwhelming
And I know that you think something must be wrong inside my head
Let go, I'm gonna chase my dreams and pray for a happy ending
You can take me or leave me
Just the way I, just the way I am

This song is dedicated to all the lost and the hopeless
To anyone who's ever been abandoned by their friends and their family
For all the laughed at, the rejected, the spit on, the abused and the broken
You are loved
You are worth it
You are more beautiful than you can possibly imagine
You're a fighter, an undefeated champion
Created in the image of absolute perfection
So hold your head up high kid
We're all in this together

I know that I might be a little bit overwhelming
And I know that you think something must be wrong inside my head
Let go, I'm gonna chase my dreams and pray for a happy ending
You can take me or leave me
Just the way I, just the way I am
