What I Am

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
