(I Am) What I Am Not - Idlewild

Calling places, collecting careless

Sentences I write them down

So I ignore them, and you should too, you should ignore every word

Is calling what you can surrender

The only way to really learn

That the alphabet made up the words

You could never resist to quote

If all this wisdom is true

Then I doubt it could really have come from you

Then I am what I am not, I am what I am not

So there must be something more then

If I am just a thought I’m not

Faster than the destination

Of knowing where you really are

Is where you’ve always been

Or is it where you began

And happiness, did it happen

Sooner than the doubt it cost you

You learn from the mistakes that I taught you

If all this wisdom is true

Then I doubt it could really have come from you

Then I am what I am not, I am what I am not

So there must be something more then

I am what I am not

If there’s nothing more then

I am what I am not, I am what I am not

There must be something more then

If I am what I am not

Then I am what I am not, I am what I am not

There must be something more then

I am what I am not

I know there’s nothing more then

I am what I am not, I am what I am not

I know there’s nothing more then

If I am what I am not
