Well, i grew up as a child with harm
and no one really understood
how i felt when you left me there
on my own we need despair

so take me as i am or just go away
take me as i am, i don’t need your sorry’s
take me as i am or you’re here in vain
away you go-oh-oh
4x whoa-oh-oh

now i got hurt at least a thousand times
when they told me i would never rise
but last the years we’re part with our hope
and who’s the one that’s aiming high?

so take me as i am…

and who’s laughing now
and who’s the one that’s crawling down on the ground
who’s laughing now
and who’s the one that’s crawling down on the ground
trying to stay connected

so take me as i am…
