I am a question to the world
                     
Not an answer to be heard 
                               
Or a moment, that s held in your arms
                                
And what, do ya think you d ever say? 
                
I won t listen anyway
            
You don t know me
                                     
And I ll never be what you want me to be
[verse 2]
                                   
And what, do you think you d understand? 
                     
I m a boy, no, I m a man 
                              
You can t take me, and throw me away
                                    
And how, can you learn what s never shown? 
                             
Yeah you stand here on your own 
             
They don t know me, 
                             
cause I m not here
[chorus]
                         
And I want a moment to be real
                            
Wanna touch things I don t feel
                       
Wanna hold on, and feel I belong
                                 
And how, can the world want me to change?
                               
They re the ones that stay the same
                              
hey don t know me, cause I m not here
[verse 3]
                                   
And you, see the things they never see 
                        
All you wanted, I could be 
                            
Now you know me, and I m not afraid
                         
And I, wanna tell you who I am 
                     
Can you help me be a man? 
            
They can t break me 
                                     
As long as I know who I am
[chorus]
                         
And I want a moment to be real
                            
Wanna touch things I don t feel
                       
Wanna hold on, and feel I belong
                                 
And how, can the world want me to change?
                               
They re the ones that stay the same
                              
They can t see me, But I m still here
[Bridge]
                        
They can t tell me who to be

Cuz I m not what they see 
                                                            
Yeah the world is still sleeping While I keep on dreaming, for me 
                                                      
And it wasn t just whispers and lies That I ll never believe
[chorus]
                         
And I want a moment to be real
                            
Wanna touch things I don t feel
                       
Wanna hold on, and feel I belong
                                 
And how, can they say I ll never change?
                               
They re the ones that stay the same
                              
I m the one now, cause I m still here
 
[Outro]
                          
I m the one, cause I m still here
         
I m still here 
        
I m still here 
        
I m still here
