Hoobastank - Who the Hell Am I? Lyrics

No more lying to myself
Pretending to be someone else
And now I'm hiding how I feel behind a smile
Living in constant self denial

There's something I need to say

No more running from my fights
And no more giving up when I know I'm right
Sick of trying to fit in
And wondering what I could have been

There's something I need to say
It's growing everyday
Things are going to change

[Chorus]
I won't apologize
For who I come to be
'Cause who the hell am I
If I cant be me
I've wasted too much time
On insecurities
'Cause who the hell am I
If I can't be me

No more need to justify
Everything I do, everything I like
and no more blood from biting my tongue
Too afraid to upset anyone

There's something I need to say

No more guilt for what I see
In the mirror staring back at me

There's something I need to say
It's growing everyday
Things are going to change

[Chorus]

And it feels like I am naked
Stripped for you to see
My scars and imperfections
But you never seemed to notice
'Cause you're too busy covering up your cuts and bruises
From who knows what
Just like me

So why apologize
For who I've come to be
'Cause who the hell am I
If I cant be me
I've wasted too much time
On insecurities
'Cause this is who I am
And that's fine with me.
