Eric Gwin - Let It Sleep Lyrics

For many years I've worked so hard to be
Everything that you expect of me
But all of this is not who I am
I've just been showing what you want to see

You want me to stay the same
Just so I can fit inside your frame

Could you please let it go?
Let me be what I was meant to be

My picture hanging up on your wall
The way that you've always seen me
Now that picture doesn't look the same
To you, the image isn't quite what it should be

You want me to stay the same
Just so I can fit inside your frame

Could you please let it go?
Let me be what I was meant to be
I know that you don't want to hear
What I have to say
But please just let it sleep

Could you please let it go?
Let me be what I was meant to be
I know that you don't want to hear
What I have to say
But please just let it sleep
