G C9
I could be the voice the stereo will sell you,
Em7 C9
that no one really values singing on the ocean floor
G C9
But I'm not
G C9
And I could be the dirt that everybody walks on,
Em7 C9
and soak up all their thoughts on how to make it to the top
G C9
But I'm not
G C9
But I'm not
D C9 G
Through every stage of understanding
D C9 G
They try to tell me what I want
D C9 G
And I can't say just who I am yet
Em7 C9
But I'm closer than I thought
D4 D G C9
'Cause I know who I'm not

verse 2
G C9
I could be the breath that blows out someone's candle,
Em7 C9
Whispers underhanded, jealous wishes in the dark,
G C9
But I'm not
G C9
And I could be the critic, with judgment in my eyes
Em7 C9
Set on nothing but the prize the kind that hides a broken heart,
G C9
But I'm not
G C9
But I'm not
D C9 G
Through every stage of understanding

'Cause I know who I'm not

Bridge
G C9
I could be the step, blind but still believing,
