Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You're feelin' isolate

And all kinds of frustrate

But I love you as you are

Love you as you are, yeah

And don't worry 'bout the hate

It don't fit in those boxes they create

And it's tearin' you apart

It's tearin' you apart, yeah

[Verse 2]

And when you build those walls to keep you safe

It's like a prison you can't escape

You tear 'em down

You just might hear me say

[Verse 3]

I love you as you are

I love you as you are

And when the whole damn world don't know what they got

Till it's gone, I love you

I love you as you are

I love you as you are

And when the whole damn world don't know what they got

Till it's gone, I love you

[Verse 4]

I love you as you are

[Verse 5]

You can come out of the shadows

They're only scared of what they don't know

But I love as you are

Love you as you are, yeah

Yeah, you wage this war within yourself

Wastin' time dyin' in a shell

They don't define you

Just know they never will

[Verse 6]

I love you as you are

I love you as you are

And when the whole damn world don't know what they got

Till it's gone, I love you

I love you as you are

I love you as you are

And when the whole damn world don't know what they got

Till it's gone, I love you

[Verse 7]

I love you as you are

Yeah

I love you as you are

Yeah

[Verse 8]

You're feelin' isolate

And all kinds of frustrate

But I love you as you are

Love you as you are, yeah

[Verse 9]

I love you as you are

I love you as you are

And when the whole damn world don't know what they got

Till it's gone, I love you

I love you as you are

I love you as you are

And when the whole damn world don't know what they got

Till it's gone, till it's gone, till it's gone

[Verse 10]

I love you as you are

Yeah

I love you as you are

Yeah

When the whole damn world don't know what they got

Till it's gone

I love you as you are
