[Verse 1]
C#
Here it is: a new confession
A#m F#
You're a rather intelligent adolescent
C#
And that's who you are, I learned my lesson
A#m D#m
I must not understand and just must be far too progressive
[Pre-Chorus]
C# F#
I never meant to be that way
A#m D#m
I just wanted to be kind
C# F#
Maybe I just think too much
A#m C#
It's only in my mind this time
[Chorus]
F# G# A#m
Oh I know I'm not everything you thought I was
A#m
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
F# G#
And oh I've tried you cried
C#
I am not all you had thought
A#m
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Post Chorus]
F# G#
And I'll do my best my flesh
Fm
Is still gonna make mistakes
A#m
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
F# G# Fm
So please forgive if it's really just some big nickname
A#m
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Verse 2]
F#
Here it is: a new perspective
C# A#m F#
I'm listening but in fair warning it's rather subjective
N.C.
Woah, so unexpected
C# A#m
I know my friends but I'd rather bathe in my self-rejection
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m
C# F# A#m
I never meant to be that way
A#m D#m
But I know I am sometimes
C# F#
Well maybe I just think too much
C#
You were right It was only in my mind
[Chorus]
F# G# A#m C#
Oh I know I'm not everything you thought I was
A#m
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
F# G#
And oh I've tried you cried
C# C#m
I am not all you had thought
A#m
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Post Chorus]
F# G#
And I'll do my best my flesh
Fm
Is still gonna make mistakes
A#m
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
F# G# D#m
So please forgive if it's really just some big nickname
A#m F# G#
(Who you say you are is who you're not)
[Outro]
