I can be strong, when I want to be
You think I'm weak
'Cause you can tear me apart with the words you speak
You think you're in control
But you don't understand how much you are wrong
You choose to lash out at me
I've done nothing wrong
All you crave it's attention
And just to be loved
You need to be loved

And I want to be free
When my heart is made from gold
And forgiveness seems too bold
I still find it in my heart
To say I love you
When my heart is made from gold
And the hunt it's just too bold
I still find it in my heart
To say I love you

Is there not enough to use your love for me
To get past the things
Close your envy and hate
And the fights that they bring
You say you looked on the small
Can't understand why you don't have it all
But you don't know how I fight for you
Believe in your aims
I just wanna do right and you
Forget what has changed
'Cause nothing has changed

And I want to be free
When my heart is made from gold
And forgiveness seems too bold
I still find it in my heart
To say I love you
When my heart is made from gold
And the hunt it's just too bold
I still find it in my heart
To say I love you

But you don't have to be so mean
You're such a drama queen
The way you play on every weakness that you see in me
To make you strong, knew all along
So don't pretend like you can hardly breathe
Like it's down to me
'Cause it's so unfair that you can't succeed
But you're so wrong
We're still so young

And I want to be free
When my heart is made from gold
And forgiveness seems too bold
I still find it in my heart
To say I love you
When my heart is made from gold
And the hunt it's just too bold
I still find it in my heart
To say I love you
