I'm tired of wearing faces
I never chose to wear
Of turning every silence
Into something I should share
I don't want to be the mystery
You only want to understand
Or the woman who knows exactly
How to make you want her hand
I want to lay my weapons down
Open my hands and breathe
And find out who I really am
When no one asks me to please
Give me a reason to stay
Something stronger than fear
Give me a reason to love
Something honest, something real
I just want to be a woman
Without having to prove my worth
To be gentle without feeling weak
To let my tears fall to the earth
Look at the world from my side
Just for a moment if you can
Make a little room for tenderness
Inside the heart of a man
You don't have to stop being strong
I don't have to hide my own
Maybe we can meet somewhere
Where neither of us stands alone
No games
No masks
No promises we cannot keep
Just your hand reaching for mine
When the night becomes too deep
I don't need you to save me
I don't need you to set me free
I only need a little space
To become the woman
I was always meant to be
And if we find each other there
Without pretending, without fear
Maybe that will be the beginning
The moment love becomes sincere
So don't ask me to be someone else
Just look at me
And let me be
