Face It

Face It
Music and Lyrics by Jonathan Chu

Spent your time hoping
For a chance to be understood
To be loved for who you are
To have someone to
Stay by your side
Until the fear
Subsides

Spent your days wishing
For someone to sit by your side
Love you more despite your insecurities
Hear you hum your sweet melody
Despite how entangled you are

But just face the truth
Superficiality is all that's wanted
Who you truly are don't count
Only who you are to them
Face it

They say
"It's great to have you"
"I love you" or
"Thank you"
But despise you when they see
What is true inside of you

They say you've changed
You're selfish and foolish
And criticize you and your actions and your words
Just because you're different
They conclude you're not good enough
And they only seek for you
When there's something they need from you

So face the truth
All friendships are meant to be at arm's length
Who you truly are don't count
Only who you are to them
Just face the truth
You're not good enough to join in
Who you can be don't count
Only who you can be to and for them
Face it

Face it
Face it

People don't love you for you
Face it
People don't love you for you
Face it
People don't love you for you
Face it
People don't love you for you
Face it

So face the truth
All friendships are meant to be at arm's length
Who you truly are don't count
Only who you are to them
Just face the truth
You're not good enough to join in
Who you can be don't count
Only who you can be to and for them
Face it
Face it
Face it
