I don't want to feel like shit
I don't want to feel like this
I don't want to seem like this
I don't want to be so strict
I don't want to be so straight forward
I don't want to be yours
I don't want to be this no more
I don't want to be nothing more
But I don't want to feel like this
I don't want to seem like this
I don't want to feel like shit
I don't want to seem so strict
I don't want to feel played
I don't want you to hate me
I don't want to see you so hurt
I don't want this to break me, no
