Why Do You Act The Way You Do? (Original Song Lyrics by Me)

Verse 1:
Perfection is a siren's cry.
I set my standards very high,
As much as it's my enemy,
I can't ignore the call.

Verse 2:
I was born to rule and reign,
But a tough face I do feign.
Although I seem to have control,
I'm just afraid to fall.

Pre-Chorus:
There's a piece I've got to find,
Both my freedom and my bind.
To know of it would clarify
So many things

Chorus:
Why do you act the way you do?
I need a piece, I need a clue.
I need to understand
This part that makes you you,
So tell me.
Why do you act the way you do?
Why do you act the way you do?

Verse 3:
I maintain a poker face,
Every time and every place.
It'd be nice if someone noticed
What lies underneath.

Verse 4:
Of course I'm so much fun,
But secret fears deeply do run.
Rejection hurts much more than
What you see.

Pre-Chorus and Chorus

Bridge:
Four basic types of people,
Neither one is good or evil.
It is just the way you are,
The way you act and live your life.
A plant that cannot live
According to its nature dies
And to a man the same applies.

Pre-Chorus and Chorus

I only have the lyrics. Feel free to sing this and create an instrumental!
