[Verse 1]

No, don't you say you love me

When you don't love me

You only wanted me

To be there when you fall

Now everything is changing

But you're not changing

Then say you'll blame me

If I change at all

But I'm the same

I'm the same

It's just circumstances

They always spin around as far as I recall

And then if we're not taking all our chances

One day regret will come

And surely kill us all

[Chorus]

And when I try to work it out

Just what this whole damn thing's about

You say we're running to be free

But it isn't me

It isn't me

It isn't me

[Verse 2]

We all have hearts for someone

We all have no one

We all have everything conceivable between

Bold ideas of sorrow

Pain and redemption

Where is the love I need

To keep me off my knees?

Where is escape?

Where is escape?

Where is the final battle fought upon

For my soul to see?

Where all the ways to break me

They give up on me

And all the ways to live

They come to rescue me

[Chorus]

And when I try to work it out

Just what this whole damn thing's about

You say we're running to be free

But it isn't me

It isn't me

It isn't me

[Bridge]

And after all this time I thought

"Well I can't go on just saying nothing"

I'll scream until these lungs are raw

If it means that I at least stood up for something

You won't kill me with those words you say

And I will never change in my direction

Because maybe it's just all a game

And I will never fall at your suggestion

Until it all

Until it all

Falls away

[Chorus]

And when I try to work it out

Just what this whole damn thing's about

You say we're running to be free

But it isn't me

It isn't me

It isn't me

But it isn't me

It isn't me

It isn't me

But it isn't me

It isn't me

It isn't me

But it isn't me

It isn't me

It isn't me
