WHY AM I BUILT THIS WAY?

(Intro)
Quiet now…
If You’re listening
I don’t know how to say this right
(Verse 1)
I talk to You in the dark
Like You might still be listening
They say I’m weird, say I’m too much
Like I chose to feel everything
(Pre-Chorus)
My head won’t quiet down
My heart won’t stay in place
I look in the mirror
And don’t like what You made
(Chorus)
Why am I built this way?
Too strange, too loud, misplaced
I feel everything or nothing
Either way, I break
Did You mean to make me like this?
Or did You walk away?
Everyone else feels human
I feel wrong every day
(Verse 2)
I fake a smile, I play along
But it never feels real
I get so mad I scare myself
Then I drown in how I feel
(Bridge)
If You’re there, say something
I’m tired of guessing my worth
(Final Chorus)
Why am I built this way?
I didn’t ask for this shape
I’m trying not to hate myself
Just tell me I’m okay
(Outro)
I’m still talking
Even in the silence
Don’t let me be invisible
