I don't understand why you want me
I look in the mirror, I don't see what you must see
You look in my eyes and I can tell that to you
I am yours and only yours, no matter what we go through
Yet I have my moments, where I doubt how you must feel
I act odd, and I act crazy
but I act real
Then I go off, and it's you that I try to impress
Still, you never doubt what I am doing, you never love me less
You could have anyone in this world
or take nobody and be free
Instead you lock yourself up, throw away the key
After everything you could have
You still want me
