Not I Lyrics


So now you're suffering the fallacy of what you said
When you uncover the depression from where you've tread
Breathe over the glass you wrote on
Swallow all that you waste your throat onYou wear the mark and wave the banner they made with sin
Revealing every single lie that you've been breeding within
Wash over the skin you've broken
Think over the tone you spoke inSo lost in your affliction
The solemn comfort of your grave
If you close your eyes the light can't take it awaySo lost in your addiction
The solemn comfort of your grave
If you close your eyes the light can't take it awayNot I
I won't conform to what I see in you
Not I
I won't surrender what I am
Not I
And even if it was a part of me
Not I
I'll never be that way againNot I

I won't conform to what I see in you
Not I
I won't surrender what I am
Not I
And even if it was a part of me
Not I
I'll never be that way againThe blind will follow on the path you created in vain
No guiding light but just the shadow of the dead will remain
Dig open the pain you're hiding
Give your hand to the faith you're fightingThe void you suffer it a curse forever bleeding inside
Now you embrace the fatal sickness you should despise
Remember the day you lost that
Where is the shame that will bring your soul back?So lost in your affliction
The solemn comfort of your grave
If you close your eyes the light can't take it awaySo lost in your addiction
The solemn comfort of your grave
If you close your eyes the light can't take it awayNot I
I won't conform to what I see in you
Not I
I won't surrender what I am
Not I
And even if it was a part of me
Not I
I'll never be that way againNot I
I won't conform to what I see in you
Not I
I won't surrender what I am
Not I
And even if it was a part of me
Not I
I'll never be that way againReach back behind your pride
Pull the thorn from the burning pain in your sideSing a song
[Incomprehensible]Sing me a new song
A broken song of redemption and regret
Sing me a new song
And beg for all the mercy you can getSing me a new song
A broken song of redemption and regret
Sing me a new song
And beg for all the mercy you can getNot I
I won't conform to what I see in you
Not I
I won't surrender what I am
Not I
And even if it was a part of me
Not I
I'll never be that way againNot I
I won't conform to what I see in you
Not I
I won't surrender what I am
Not I
And even if it was a part of me
Not I
I'll never be that way again

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
