Strip Me

Every day I fight for all my future somethings
A thousand little wars I have to choose between
I could spend a lifetime earning things that I don't need
But that's like chasing rainbows and coming home empty

And if you strip me, strip it all away
If you strip me, what would you find
If you strip me, strip it all away
I'll be all right

Take what you want, steal my pride
Build me up or cut me down to size
Shut me out, but I'll just scream
I'm only one voice in a million
But you ain't taking that from me

You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that

I don't need a microphone to say what I've been thinking
My heart is like a loudspeaker that's always on eleven

And if you strip me, strip it all away
If you strip me, what would you find
If you strip me, strip it all away
I'm still the same

Take what you want, steal my pride
Build me up or cut me down to size
Shut me out, but I'll just scream
I'm only one voice in a million
But you ain't taking that from me

No, you ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that

'Cause when it all boils down at the end of the day
It's what you do and say that makes you who you are
Makes you think about and think about it, doesn't it
Sometimes all it takes is one voice

Take what you want, steal my pride
Build me up or cut me down to size
Shut me out, but I'll just scream
I'm only one voice in a million
But you ain't taking that from me

No, you ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that

Take what you want, steal my pride
Build me up or cut me down to size
Shut me out, but I'll just scream
I'm only one voice in a million
But you ain't taking that from me

No, you ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that from me
You ain't taking that
