Love me like I am

I’m not the girl in your daydream scene

I wear my flaws like ripped up jeans

I talk too loud, I cry too deep

I’ve got secrets I still keep

You want sugar, I’m a little salt

Yeah, I’m the fire, not your fault

But if you’re lookin’ for something real

I won’t pretend, I won’t conceal

I’ve been through hell, came out swingin’

Heart still beats, yeah, it’s still singin’

You don’t have to understand

Just hold me with your open hands

So love me like I am , no edits, no disguise

Don’t try to change the thunder in my skies

I’m messy, loud, and scarred, it’s true

But I don’t need perfect I need you

If you’re in, then take the fall

The highs, the fights, the walls I crawl

Don’t wait for who I’ll never be

Just love me like I am

I won’t be quiet just to please

I’ve got a war beneath my peace

You think I’m cold when I pull away

But I’m just scared you’ll never stay

I slam doors when I feel small

Then write your name on every wall

I’m not a saint, I’ve made mistakes

But I’ve got a heart that never fakes

So if you’re down to ride this wave

Don’t flinch when I misbehave

I’ve been burned, but I still try

To be the truth, not just the lie

So love me like I am , no filter, no repair

Don’t ask me to be softer than this stare

I’m wild, rough, but I’m all in

With armor made of broken skin

If you’re here, then take it all

The rise, the crash, the silent calls

Don’t wish for who I’ll never be

Just love me like I am

[Bridge] (big guitar build, emotional)

I don’t want a fairytale, I want something that can bleed

If you can’t love me at my worst, then you don’t get the best of me

So take your shot no backs, no blame

But don’t expect me to change my name

Love me like I am this chaos, this fire

Not your perfect little girl, but I’ll never tire

Of fighting for the ones who stay

So if you’re here, don’t drift away

I’m not easy, but I’m true

And I could be everything for you

Don’t hope for who I’ll never be

Just love me like I am

Yeah…

Just love me like I am…
