They tell me to hate you
Better not start speaking freely
Better not start being true
Better not start singing loudly
Better not try something new
But what they don't know

Is what I really want (what I really want)
What I want to say to you
What I want to say to you

They tell you what to be
They tell you what to think
They tell you to hate me
Better not start speaking freely
Better not start being true
Better not start singing loudly
Better not try something new
But what they don't know
Is who you really are (who you really are)
Yeah, what they don't know
Is what you really want (what you really want)
What you want to say to me
What you want to say to me

Yeah, what they don't know
Is what we really will do
