(i Am) What I Am Not Lyrics - Idlewild

Calling places, collecting careless 

Sentences I write them down so I ignore them 

You should too, should ignore every word 

Calling what you can surrender 

Is 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 

'Cause then I am what I am not, I am what I am not 

But it must something more than if I am just a thought I'll know 

Faster than the destination of knowing where you really are 

It's where you've always been or is it where you began? 

And happiness did it happen sooner than the doubt 

It costs to learn from the mistakes that I taught you 

If all this wisdom is true 

'Cause then I doubt it could really have come from you 

'Cause then I am what I am not, I am what I am not 

So there must be something more than I am what I am not 

If theres nothing more than I am what I am not, I am what I am not 

There must be something more than 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 than I am what I am not, 

I know theres nothing more than I am what I am not, I am what I am not 

I know theres nothing more than if I am what I am not
