I’M NOT WHO YOU THINK I AM

Текст песни

[INTRO — MALE LEAD / FEMALE RESPONSE] MALE: You think you know me, think you’ve got me figured out FEMALE: You don’t know a damn thing! MALE: You’ve got me wrong — now watch me prove it! [VERSE 1 — MALE LEAD] You made your judgement, called it fact Thought I’d just sit there and take that I kept my silence, let you roll the dice Mistook my silence for taking your advice [PRE-CHORUS — MALE / FEMALE] MALE: You don’t know the battles I don’t show Or the side of me you’ll never know FEMALE: You got it wrong! MALE: Now let me show you! [CHORUS — MALE & FEMALE DUET] MALE: I’m not who you think I am FEMALE: I’m more than you’ll understand MALE: You drew your lines, you made your plans FEMALE: But you’ll never know just who I am MALE: You judge the cover, never see the scars FEMALE: You don’t know how hard I’ve come this far BOTH: Keep believing what you think you see I’m not who you think I am! [VERSE 2 — MALE LEAD] You saw me bend, thought I’d break in two Made up your mind like you always do You saw what you wanted, believed your own lies Never saw the fire behind my eyes [PRE-CHORUS — MALE / FEMALE] MALE: You don’t know the battles I don’t show Or the side of me you’ll never know FEMALE: You got it wrong! MALE: Now let me show you! [CHORUS — MALE & FEMALE DUET] MALE: I’m not who you think I am FEMALE: I’m more than you’ll understand MALE: You drew your lines, you made your plans FEMALE: But you’ll never know just who I am MALE: You judge the cover, never see the scars FEMALE: You don’t know how hard I’ve come this far BOTH: Keep believing what you think you see I’m not who you think I am! [BRIDGE — BUILDING INTENSITY] MALE: You don’t get to tell me who I am You never knew me, never gave a damn FEMALE: You got me wrong! MALE: I don’t need your approval, don’t need your praise I won’t be defined by your narrow ways BOTH: You never knew me then… FEMALE: And you don’t know me now! [GUITAR SOLO — SHORT, MELODIC, EXPLOSIVE] [FINAL CHORUS — FULL MALE & FEMALE DUET] MALE: I’m not who you think I am FEMALE: I’m more than you’ll understand MALE: You drew your lines, you made your plans FEMALE: But you’ll never know just who I am MALE: You judge the cover, never see the scars FEMALE: You don’t know how hard I’ve come this far BOTH — BIG, POWERFUL HARMONIES: Keep believing what you think you see I’m not who you think I am! [OUTRO — BOTH, HARD STOP] MALE: I’m not who you think I am! FEMALE: You never knew me! BOTH: I’m not who you think I am! [END — TIGHT, EXPLOSIVE BAND HIT]
