Momoka Kisaki - Watashi de Aritai/私でありたい [English Metered Lyrics]

This song will always be special to me because I first heard it on the same trip I discovered "Bishounen". I actually only listened to this song because it was recommended after I listened to Momoka's cover of "summertime". Anyways, I did some touch ups from the version that I drafted on stream and this is the result, so I hope you enjoy it!

~~~Lyrics~~~

[Verse 1]
Every time I see her, she's always so happy
Surrounded by her friends, she seems so carefree
Meanwhile I seemed to have a hard time living
Always afraid of people hating me

[Verse 2]
Her and her boyfriends, oh I always hated them
They used to tease me and make me cry all of the time
Of course, they don't remember any of it
But as for me, I’ll never forget

[Pre-Chorus]
The earth turns over and I start to fall
I have no agency, no I have none at all
I can’t change anything
No, I can’t change it at all
This world is wound up way too tight

[Chorus]
As I’m standing here, I start to cry
I can’t escape the pain as hard as I try
I just don’t know at all, how could I ever know
I’m always wandering everywhere that I go
I don’t know what the meaning of life is, all that I know is I’m struggling
All that I want, is just to be, just to be me
That’s all I want, just to be, who I’m meant to be

[Bridge]
Everywhere I look
There’s nothing that I can do, no there’s not a thing
Slowly suffocating
As these words fill my throat, and my eyes start to fade, oh just what should I do?

[Pre-Chorus]
I got up and stood all on my own
No matter how the wind blows
I believe in myself, no matter what anyone else says
I can keep moving on

[Chorus]
I don’t know what the meaning of life is
But in the end, I don’t care you see
Since after all, in the end, I live for me
All that I want, is just to be, just to be me

[Outro]
Actually, sometimes she didn’t seem so happy
We all have problems that only we can see
But even if the earth turns over
I won’t fall, I’ll always be me
