Allison Iraheta-Scars

Did I say something stupid?
There goes one more mistake...
Do I bore you with my problems?
Is that why you turn away?
Do you know how hard I tried,
To become what you want me to be???

Take me
This is all that I've got
This is all that I'm not
All that I'll ever be
I've got flaws, I've got faults
Keep searching for your perfect heart
It doesn't matter who you are
We all have our scars
We all have our scars

You say don't act like a child,
But what if it's a father I need?
It's not like you don't know what you got yourself into,
Don't tell me I'm the one who's naive...
Do you know how hard I've tried,
To become what you want me to be?

Take me
This is all that I've got
This is all that I'm not
All that I'll ever be
I've got flaws, I've got faults
Keep searching for your perfect heart
It doesn't matter who you are
We all have our scars
We all have our scars

Come on, just let it go
These are things you can't control
Your expectations, your explanations
Don't make sense to me
You and your alternatives
Don't send me to your therapists
Deep down, I know what you mean
And I'm not sure that's what I wanna be
No....

Take me
This is all that I've got
This is all that I'm not
All that I'll ever be
I've got flaws, I've got faults
Keep searching for your perfect heart
It doesn't matter who you are
We all have our scars
We all have our scars
Oh no no no

... this is a pretty sad number, yet I think the lyrics easily relate to many people from all walks of life...

... there are people who gives, and then there are those who takes..
...sometimes, people are just too shallow that they overlook the good-they expect too much, and yet don't see that the other person is doing their level best to please; they're trying so hard to be better, and yet is not appreciated in the way they had hoped it to be ...

..As I recall one person who said this, "I come in one set... you can take it or leave it..."
...I'll remember this statement for the rest of my life...

... mirrors the reflection of many people who think that sometimes, they are just not good enough, they are just not trying hard enough, they are just...............

... and then they gradually give up trying...



... when all they have to be is THEMSELVES...
