May I have your attention!
I am not who you thought I would be.
I swear I swear
Don't you see
Don't you see
As I stand exactly,
where you thought I should be.
How many past selves?
How many are we?
Will we ever not miss
who it was we used to be
I swear, I'm still me
He says, "Your confusing"
He says, "I can't figure you out"
"Predictably unpredictable"
Unsurprising, of course
Just stop
Stop asking for more.
I wasn't it
what you're looking for
but, that's not the problem is it?
No, no,
the problem is me.
You'll be back again you see
I may not be much
but, I'm the only me
It's a lonely ride
being honest
with yourself
secrets secrets
on the shelf
It's a closed door
and open casket
you see
it's a short chapter in closed book
and enticing line
with no look
What is it you would like to see?
I have a feeling it is not
the real me
As I sit in front of you
naked as the sea
and I watch you look
strait through me
No, no, now I see
I am not who you thought
I would be
And yet, I am still
exactly me
In the flesh
prickled by the breeze
love me love me
let me be
But, alas, in light you will see
despite your efforts
I am still me
I am not who you thought I'd be
no, no,
I am just me
