CaddG
I am a question to the world,
CaddG
Not an answer to be heard.
CaddG CaddG
Or a moment that s held in your arms.
CaddG
And what do you think you d ever say?
CaddG
I won t listen anyway
CaddG
You don t know me,
CaddG
And I ll never be what you want me to be.
And what do you think you d understand?
I m a boy, no, I m a man
You can take me and throw me away.
And how can you learn what s never shown?
Yeah, you stand here on your own.
They don t know me cause I m not here.
CHORUS
CaddG
And I want a moment to be real,
CaddG
Wanna touch things I don t feel,
CaddG CaddG
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
CaddG
And how can the world want me to change,
CaddG
They re the ones that stay the same.
CaddG
They don t know me,
CaddG
Cause I m not here.
*end chorus*
And you see the things they never see
All you wanted, I could be
Now you know me, and I m not afraid
And I wanna tell you who I am
Can you help me be a man?
They can t break me
As long as I know who I am
And I want a moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don t feel,
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can the world want me to change,
They re the ones that stay the same.
They can t see me,
But I m still here.
BRIDGE:
*riff*
They can t tell me who to be,
*riff*
Cause I m not what they see.
And the world is still sleepin ,
*riff*
While I keep on dreamin for me.
And their words are just whispers
CaddG *riff*
And lies that I ll never believe.
*end bridge*
And I want a moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don t feel,
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can they say I never change
They re the ones that stay the same.
I m the one now,
Cause I m still here.
I m the one,
Cause I m still here.
I m still here.
I m still here.
I m still here.
