Why d'you gotta be so mean to me?

I've never done anything to anyone

Why d'you gotta be so mean to me?

I just wanna be someone

(I just wanna be someone, I just wanna be someone, I just wanna)

Ridin' out, runnin' out of tears

Yeah, you used to tease me, used to make it clear

I will be no one

A worthless piece of shit

I was scared of you

You were part of the elite

Now I'm lookin' in the sunshine

Swimming in the blue

But still once in a while

I'm going back to you

Thinkin' bout your words

They cut me like a knife

Made me feel so small

So can you tell me why

Why d'you gotta be so mean to me?

I've never done anything to anyone, t-to anyone

Why d'you gotta be so mean to me?

I just wanna be someone, t-t-to anyone

Falling down, falling down, but you

Keep pulling me further, I'm drownin' in the blue

I can't see the light

I guess it's all in vain

I still see your lips

Cursing out my name

Now I'm lookin' in the sunshine

Swimming in the blue

But still once in a while

I'm going back to you

Thinkin' bout your words

They cut me like a knife

Made me feel so small

So can you tell me why

(Why-)

Why d'you gotta be so mean to me?

I've never done anything to anyone, to-to anyone

Why d'you gotta be so mean to me?

I just wanna be someone (I just wanna be someone) to-to-to anyone

Now I'm soaking in it

I'm sitting at the bottom of the pool and dreaming

Cause when I close my eyes I almost touch the ceiling

The water's turning dark, I've never felt this feeling

Now you know your words can lift me up like helium

Make me feel so good like I'm one in a million

Cause I live for compliments, even though they don't mean anything

Why d'you gotta be so mean to me?

I've never done anything to anyone

Why d'you gotta be so mean to me?

I just wanna be someone
