Verse 1:
Don’t you find it strange?
How it all has changed.
You look down and see
That you’re afraid of me.
I’m a threat to you and yours
And I’m opening closed doors.
This is not what you have planned
And for this I will not stand
Pre-Chorus 1:
To see you lie, 'cause I can see it in your eyes,
And you just don't understand the kind of turmoil in my mind.
Chorus:
You'll ask me once, I'll tell you twice, and still again, it won't suffice,
D'you see the fire in my eyes?
And just because you're going forwards doesn't mean I'm going backwards.This isn't me and isn't you,
This isn't you.
Verse 2:
Power with words you like to twist
Casts a shadow that does not exist.
I'm a martyr for my cause,
But I'm not looking for applause.
I'll carry on but stronger now,
And you'll forever wonder how
I stayed standing tall,
While you just hoped to watch me
Pre-Chorus 2:
Fall and lose my way, but I'll keep fighting every day,
And soon you'll realise we're not the same in any way.
Chorus: (x2)
You'll ask me once, I'll tell you twice, and still again, it won't suffice,
D'you see the fire in my eyes?
And just because you're going forwards doesn't mean I'm going backwards.
This isn't me and isn't you,
This isn't you.
