Intro: , , , ,
VERSE I:
This is my face on my head on my shoulders
With eyes and a mouth and a nose
With a lie on my tongue and a weight on my back
And a fidgeting twitch in my toes
But this isnât me anymore
PRECHORUS I:
These are my arms around you, though youâre reluctant
And my fingernails, I canât help but bite
My face is in my hands, but Iâll change in seconds
As my smile returns and I remember tonight
And I find that Iâm me once more
CHORUS:
Cos this is the me that I like to be
D#sus
Charisma quick wit and charm
But that side of me rarely likes to be
In the face of causing harm.
Can you see my fear as you disappear
D#sus
Into someone elseâs arms
Or are you unaware that the me you care for
Isnât really me at all
This is me.
VERSE II:
These are my hands, on my arms, on my conscience
With fingers that shake while they strum
And this is you, in my head, regardless of whether I want you there
And thoughts that I tried to avoid have already begun
And I canât feel myself anymore
PRECHORUS II:
These are my fingers typing, to no avail
As I try my best, to let you down
But Iâve just so much to do, and I canât help but force you
To the bottom of my lists and block out the sound
This isnât the me I want to explore
Bridge:
D#sus D#maj
CHORUS
This is me, this is me. Oh this is me, this is me
This is me, oh this is, this is me.
Da da da daa da da da daa da.
