Take Me On

do i bring you to your knees
you look at me like you worship me
i'm no queen, no angel, nothing to be smiled at
the way you smile at me

there was one that i thought i had changed
he looked at me and blinked
i wanted to hurt his eyes and he wanted me to go away
i wanted to shove him away and didn't get the chance

i've lost my faith in man but not mankind
there is a difference because i say there is
and i will take on anyone who wants to argue
i do things my way and that is all there is to it

if i have to wash my hands after touching you, i will
don't take offense
it just happens that way
things aren't perfect, and i don't wish they were

if you trust me and really want me
take me on, convince me
make me want to fall out of line and walk beside you
i would do it if i thought it was worth it
