Lyrics
What I Am
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Awake and breathing
We halt and catch fire
Timing’s never what the soul desires
I belong somewhere on the outside
Will the signal survive
When the circuit breaks?
Telling me something
It’s telling me something
It’s telling me something now
What am I supposed to do?
You’re dragging me away
From the promise land
You fucked me up
But I refuse to let you kill what I am
Same old feeling
When we halt and catch fire
Tired of all this reused desire
You belong somewhere
Just not in my mind
I won’t burn myself out
Just to keep you warm
It’s telling me something
It’s telling me something
It’s telling me something now
The pressure is rising
I feel it inside me
I need you to hear me now
What am I supposed to do?
You’re dragging me away
From the promise land
You fucked me up
But I refuse to let you kill what I am
What am I supposed to do?
You’re dragging me away
From the promise land
You fucked me up
But now I know who I am
What am I supposed to do?
You’re dragging me away
From the promise land
You fucked me up
But I refuse to let you kill what I am
