There's someone at my door, I can hear him knocking
If I let him inside it will all be true
I didn't know that I was capable of all of this
Look what I've turned into

What if I'm not a good person?
You always say that I am
But you don't really know me at all now
I think that I'm not who you think I am
But I like to be seen and I like to be wanted
Want it to mean something, though
And we never quite knew how to be honest
Honest to God, I should go

Better than this
Someone will love you better than this
Better than this

What if I'm not a good person?
You always say that I am
But you don't really know me at all now
I have you right in the palm of my hand
'Cause I like to be seen and I like to be wanted
Always could count on you there
It's probably wrong that I never was honest
Honest to God, I was scared

Someone will love you better than this
