Take Me As I Am
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A vision that hurts and a skirt that's clinging
Suspicion fought with thirst but the thirst was winning
I'll regret this in the morning, shots at the Ride
That's future me, I'm glad I'm not that guy
With your hand above the fold, you're a scandal in your press
There's powers in your flowers, you're a damsel in distress
Take me as I am (ay)
Or watch me as I go
She said
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
Melodies of love, all selling the dream
Everyone in the club is smelling their keys
Men are weird at the close of the PM
Just ask a pretty girl to show you her DMs
First we're at the bar, blurry to the brink
Ghost me at the bar, you'll be thirsty with a drink, she said
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
You're messing with my mind, my feelings in your eyes
It's a blessing in disguise but it's really well disguised
I'll regret this in the morning, shots at the Ride
But that's future me, I'm glad I'm not that guy
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
She said
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
She said
Take me as I am (ay)
Or watch me as I go
She said
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
A vision that hurts and a skirt that's clinging
Suspicion fought with thirst but the thirst was winning
I'll regret this in the morning, shots at the Ride
But that's future me, I'm glad I'm not that guy
With your hand above the fold, you're a scandal in your press
There's powers in your flowers, you're a damsel in distress
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
She said
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
She said
Take me as I am (ay)
Or watch me as I go
She said
Take me as I am
Or watch me as I go
