Who You Are Lyrics

Contradiction is life and meaning is dead

The city lies quiet as you race to the end

Gone are your virtues with vices your only friend

Too proud to bend, too selfish to care

With addiction your friend, the past seems clear

Your life goes by in a haze of color and fear

And if you ever want to know, the way you were and the way home

And if you ever fall apart, take it back to the very start

Maybe then you'll have a change of heart

Cause deep down you know who you are

Deception is rife and honor is dead

Ambitions in sight like a flame in your head

You tried to go home but wound up here instead

In the fading light, it's crystal clear

The final hours are just as you feared

No one to hear the last fragile words you said

And if you ever want to know, the way you were and the way home

And if you ever fall apart, take it back to the very start

Maybe then you'll have a change of heart

Cause deep down you know who you are

Those endless nights, in a sea of light

No end in sight, you can't face another day

Lost in doubt, keep it to yourself

Don't ask for help, there must be a better way

There must be a better way

And if you ever want to know, the way you were and the way home

And if you ever fall apart, take it back to the very start

Maybe then you'll have a change of heart

Cause deep down you know who you are

Who you are

Who you are

Who you are
