VERSE 1 In the pursuit of acceptance I hope you know why I chose you See I cannot accept myself For all the things that you possess A nature true and beautiful By nature things I refuse So I will not get in your way Should someone less flawed take you away CHORUS 1 You were My friend Long before this argument So I Won't mind I always knew that this would end VERSE 2 I know I'm sounding like a cheap Made for TV film of the week But what sounds dramatised to you Means simply you're not in my shoes I've worn the soles I broke a lace I barely walk an old man's pace So I will not get in your way Should someone less flawed take you away REPEAT CHORUS
