This Is Me

歌詞

This is me Before the war You can see I don't look much like that Anymore. Yes, my hands Are still as small You understand-- Not all the changes Are visible. Sebastian-- Bless his heart! Swallowed by pride A bona fide Bonaparte He led the men Up the hill He was smiling then, And that's how I think of him still. (Chorus) So if you told me that half and half still make a whole And if you chose me over one and one-half million souls And if you loved me with abandon-- I'd run anyhow. And if you asked me, I'd say, "That's what I know of love, Now." We never knew Who to trust Soldiers came Full of unchecked Fear and lust. And I imagined You were there Whispering hope With bombs whistling, Falling through the air. (Chorus) And I remember all the faces Of people in my town-- That's just one more tragedy And I am dreaming of a heart That opens without a sound That's how I imagine me... (Chorus) This is me Before the war You can see I don't look much like that Anymore.
