          Bb         Dm   F 
There's a fire in my heart 
             Bb          Dm   C 
But I've got blood in my mouth 
       Bb 
Tongue caged by my teeth 
       Dm            F 
Trying hard just to speak 
         Bb 
But your shout has got me beat 
        Bb          Bb      
And I'm rusting I'm rusting 

( Dm  F  Bb  Dm  C ) 
( Bb  Dm  Gm  Bb  Gm  C ) 

       Bb 
And my mother always told me 
      Dm             Gm 
Tread lightly don't step 
On his toes And that was 
Bb 
Okay at a young age 
         Dm         Gm 
But I am fully grown 

         Bb 
Suit and tie at the table 
Dm             C 
  Another disappointment 
          Bb 
I'll stay quiet 
Still unstable 
Dm                 Gm 
  I'll swallow the poison 

           Bb 
Cause I am not who 
                Dm  Gm 
You were at nineteen 
     Bb 
I am not the man 
               Gm C 
You want me to be 
Bb 
I'm not a warrior 
     Dm           Gm 
I am fragile I am weak 
Bb 
I'm not a warrior 
Gm       C 
I am not you I'm 
       Bb  Dm  F  Bb 
Barely me 

Bb 
Someday I hope to make it clear 
   Dm                  F 
To you that success is not 
                            Bb 
Determined by leather bound books 
                     Dm 
And ink on paper but rather 
The passion that I have 
F            Bb 
Found out of heartbreak and 
                  Dm 
Anger I know that happiness 
      F         Bb 
Is stability but  stability 
Is not a desk job and 

   Bb           Dm 
I refuse to sacrifice my 
    F              Bb 
Aspirations for an income and 
        Dm         F 
Security  What the hell is security? 

( Dm  C  Bb  Am  Gm  Am ) 

              Dm          C 
See I'd rather  die at my fullest 
Bb               Am 
Poor but free to roam than let an 
Gm                    Am 
Office drain me slowly  for the sake 
     Dm  C 
Of a home Cause I watched your 
Bb           Am     Gm 
Endless intermission  an actor 
               Am          Dm 
Trapped in mediocrity Gave up 
          C 
On your ambitions and your 
   Bb                   Am 
Convictions compared to mine 
Gm                    Am 
  What a rigid dichotomy 

           Bb 
Cause I am not who 
                Dm  Gm 
You were at nineteen 
     Bb 
I am not the man 
               Gm C 
You want me to be 
Bb 
I'm not a warrior 
     Dm           Gm 
I am fragile I am weak 
Bb 
I'm not a warrior 
Gm       C 
I am not you

Cause I am not who 
You were at nineteen
