You Can Be You With Me Lyrics by Citizen Soldier
You’re in the headlines and you can’t escape it
Being the target of so many’s hatred
Try to shake dark thoughts while your stomach drops
You keep pretending that it don’t affect you
All the strangers that misrepresent you
Now the shame don’t stop ’til your mind’s in knots
If they label you as sick
And say you don’t exist
Keep listening, keep listening to this
You can be you with me (Me)
You don’t have to change one thing (Thing)
Don’t let these simple lines
Gaslight away your pride
You can be you with me (Me)
The person they don’t want to see (See)
Tyrants can threaten rights
But they can’t take your spine
Put that broken heart back on your sleeve
You can be you with me
Trying to unlock yourself, but you don’t know how
‘Cause they’re saying that you don’t exist now
‘Til you contemplate an early grave
Loud minority keeps spewing venom
But connection is your greatest weapon
If you need to break, just know I’m safe
You can be you with me (Me)
You don’t have to change one thing (Thing)
Don’t let these simple lines
Gaslight away your pride
You can be you with me (Me)
The person they don’t want to see (See)
Tyrants can threaten rights
But they can’t take your spine
Put that broken heart back on your sleeve
You can be you with me
So if they label you as sick
And say you don’t exist
Keep listening to this, keep listening to this
So if you’re just about to quit
And think you won’t be missed
Keep listening to this, keep listening to this
You can be you with me (Me)
You don’t have to change one thing (Thing)
Don’t let these simple lines
Gaslight away your pride
You can be you with me (Me)
The person they don’t want to see (See)
Tyrants can threaten rights
But they can’t take your spine
Put that broken heart back on your sleeve
You can be you with me
