Not an answer to be heard
Or a moment that's held in your arms
And what do you think you'd ever say
I won't listen anyway
You don't know me
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't take me and throw me away
And how can you learn what's never shown
Yeah , you stand here on your own
You don't know me
'Cause I'm not here
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 one , they stay the same
They don't know me
'Cause I'm not here
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 one , they stay the same
They can't see me
But I'm still here
They can't tell me who to be
'Cause I'm not what they see
Yeah , the world is still sleepin'
While I keep on dreamin' for me
And their words are just whispers and lies
That I never believe
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 one , they 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
I am a question to the world Not an answer to be heard Or a moment that's held in your arms And what do you think you'd ever say I won't listen anyway You don't know me 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't take me and throw me away And how can you learn what's never shown Yeah , you stand here on your own You don't know me 'Cause I'm not here 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 one , they stay the same They don't know me 'Cause I'm not here 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 one , they stay the same They can't see me But I'm still here They can't tell me who to be 'Cause I'm not what they see Yeah , the world is still sleepin' While I keep on dreamin' for me And their words are just whispers and lies That I never believe 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 one , they 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 Explain Request ×
