Not Who You Think

Cold sweats and desperate calls
there’s nothing left to do
the fire killed your eyes

Don’t sit and scream and yell 
there’s no one here to listen to your needs
you’re trapped here in your darkness
Can you see?
I’m not who you need

[Chorus]
Can you hear? Can you see?
I Am leaving you away
Can you feel? Can you see?
I am Letting you away
Can you hear? Can you feel?
I am Not here anymore
can’t you learn? Can’t you see?
I am Not who you want from me

Letting go of all you had once
and let me be alone in your heart
this is true, but I don’t want you
no no nooo
can’t you see?
I'm not who you need

[Chorus]
Can you hear? Can you see?
I Am leaving you away
Can you feel? Can you see?
I am Letting you away
Can you hear? Can you feel?
I am Not here anymore
can’t you learn? Can’t you see?
I am Not who you want from me

I know that this is not fair
but my heart is lost
it’s torn apart 
this love is killing me
can’t you see?
I’m not who you need

[Chorus]
Can you hear? Can you see?
I Am leaving you away
Can you feel? Can you see?
I am Letting you away
Can you hear? Can you feel?
I am Not here anymore
can’t you learn? Can’t you see?
I am Not who you want from me
