"Who I'll Never Be" lyrics - ATMOSPHERE

She locked herself in that room
With a full view of a full moon
And this where she come to fly
When she wanna disappear from what's outside

I try not to make it obvious
She doesn't know there's an audience
These walls are ripped and thin
So it ain't my fault that I'm listenin'

And I can make out every word
'Cause she sing loud like a trapped bird
She looks out at the stars
When she writes songs on that guitar

And every song you write without me
Just another sad song to me
And every song you write without me
Sound like who I'll never be

She picked up her instrument
And I don't know where I went
I just close my eyes and float
Like I'm in there with her tryin' to hold all

The notes she hits, motionless
A secret solo show she gives
Sometimes she'll search for a line
And I wish I could give her one of mine

But it would all unravel
If she found out I was in the shadows
So I suppress what I obsess
But your biggest fan wanna sing a duet

Because every song you write without me
Just another sad song to me
And every song you write without me
Sound like who I'll never be

Familiar with the voice of the lonely
Lost in the noise of the wind blowing
Go ahead, girl, tell your story
But the siren don't wail for holy

Play your heart by strings with the parts you sing
Can't wait to hear what tomorrow brings
And if you ever get to smile
I'll be right here tryin' to reconcile

My desire to admire your sadness
You gonna rise from the fire and ashes
And if it's all the same to you
You oughta let me be the one to change your tune

Because every song you write without me
Just another sad song to me
And every song you write without me
Sound like who I'll never be
