i am [stripped] [*][version]
I am timid and I am oversensitive I am a lioness I am tired and defensive You take me in your arms And I fall into you I have insecurities You show me I am beautiful  Love me or leave me Just take it or leave it It's not that I'm needy Just need you to see me  Take me, free me, see through to the core of me Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending  Mm  I am temperamental and I have imperfections and I am emotional I am unpredictable I am naked I am vulnerable I am a woman I am opening up to you  Love me or leave me Just take it or leave it It's not that I'm needy Just need you to see me  Take me, free me, see through to the core of me Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending  Now I stand before you with my heart in my hands I'm asking you to take me just the way that I am Please lay down your arms, do you know me? Make me feel safe from harm  Take me, free me, see through to the core of me Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending  I am temperamental and I have imperfections and I am emotional There'll be no more pretending  Mm hm
