Who I Am Lyrics by The Dirty Youth

Gold Dust

2015

[Verse 1]
I taste the aftermath
The aftershock
The candle has burned out
It wasn't worth it
It cuts me up to watch it fade away
I see the broken glass
[Corruption's past? 0:35]
And the pictures are all torn
Silent voices
Telling me you're not so perfect
[Pre-Chorus]
We tried so hard
But we broke down
But we broke down
But we broke down
And in the end
We all break down
We all break down
We all break down
[Chorus]
This is who I am
I'm leaving you now
This is who I am
Don't reach for me now
I surrender
[Verse 2]
You're so predictable
Unable
To confess you were wrong
You're getting honesty
Apparently it's not important
I see through your smoke
I'd rather choke
Than go back down that road
Time is frozen
And everything's about to shatter
[Pre-Chorus]
We tried so hard
But we broke down
But we broke down
But we broke down
And in the end
We all break down
We all break down
We all break down
[Chorus]
This is who I am
I'm leaving you now
This is who I am
Don't reach for me now
I surrender
[Bridge]
Everytime you say you want me so close to you
I just can't take it
Sorry but I just can't pretend that I'm in love
I just can't fake it
I surrender
[Pre-Chorus]
We tried so hard
But we broke down
But we broke down
But we broke down
And in the end
We all break down
We all break down
We all break down
[Chorus]
This is who I am
I'm leaving you now
This is who I am
Don't reach for me now
I surrender
[Outro]
Whooaa
I'll never run into your arms again
Whooaa
Let's close this book
It's come to the end
Whooaa
