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 you 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   
 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   
 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 don't know me 
 'Cause I'm not here   
 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   
 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   
 They can't tell me who to be 
 'Cause I'm not what they see 
 Yeah, the world is still sleepin' 
 While I keep on dreamin' for me 
 And their words are just whispers and lies 
 That I'll never believe   
 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 
 I'm the one 
 'Cause I'm still here 
 I'm still here 
 I'm still here 
 I'm still here
