Rise Against
[Intro] [Verse 1] I feel the same no different than before There was a time when what you thought of me once mattered I put weight behind your words [Pre-Chorus] Then something snapped Deep down inside me Tectonic shifts aligning Soft image into focus Snapped fingers break hypnosis Light through the crack And then everything went back [Chorus] I am not the person you remember from before The one you patronized and steppеd on the one you hurt (Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh) And I have pullеd the arrows now my skin has become stone No longer am I prisoner to your empty fucking words [Verse 2] I carried every single word you said They stacked up high they weighed me down But underneath it all I didn’t notice I was growing strong somehow Lean backward through an open window Nothing left can save me now I hear the cry of the approaching sirens Right as I count down [Pre-Chorus] Then something snapped A lightbulb moment Like sighting land from the ocean Pure water in the desert A thirst that can’t be measured The first breath of a child Released into the wild [Chorus] I am not the person you remember from before The one you patronized and steppеd on the one you hurt (Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh) And I have pullеd the arrows now my skin has become stone No longer am I prisoner to your empty fucking words [Interlude] [Bridge] And your pain is an open secret It spills with every breath And this game that you played is over now And gone are the days I was helpless and afraid Yeah gone are the walls that kept me in [Outro] Yeah I I’m not the person That you remember from before Yeah I I’m not the person That you remember from before Yeah I I’m not the person That you remember from before That you remember That you remember Do you remember? Do you remember?
