 intro  (repeat)
 verse1 I  don't know what you feel  no more when  you look in my eyes
  I  know I'm the same girl who walked  out that door,  but I'm brand new
  inside
  Maybe  what I'm sayin' ain't true  after all,  I take it a minute at a time
  Maybe  all I want is to hold  you right now  with no compromise
 chorus This is the real me,  breakin' down  at last
  Hey, it's the real me,  crawlin' out  of my past
  Baby, the real me...  wants the real you...  so bad
 verse2 The numbness overcomes me now like alcohol and fear
  And I want to crawl inside you, baby, but I don't want you near
  A woman's her own mystery, not a shadow of her man
  But I'm not a queen inside a mirror no more, I'm not a guard to hold
  hand
 bridge Well,  I've got no answers  now, and I don't  expect  them of you
  Thank  God for second chances,  baby, coz there's something  I can give to
  you
 chorus And it's the real me, breakin' down at last
  Hey, it's the real me, crawlin' out of my past
  Baby, the real me... wants the real you... so bad
  Baby, the real me... wants the real you... so bad
 Again, haven't played this one in a long time, so look for mistakes.
