the chorus goes

i am not who i think i am
i am not who you think i am
i am who i think you think i am

talks about the struggles we have with our identity and insecurities and the masks we put on

a smile is what you see
mannerisms, empty facade, deceit
no, everythin is fine with me
but only if you could see what's underneath

a broken life, and a chipped shoulder
a broken heart, it's getting a little colder
tonight, oh I feel so lonely tonight
kicking, and shouting, I'm trying to fight
hidden underneqath these plastic masks of disguise
can anyone hear my useless cries

I am not who I think I am
I am not who you think i am
I am who i think you think i am

so lonely inside
dying to find
someone to talk to
someone to confide
but tell me if I
tell you all I am
would you still love me the same

lil scared and insecure
locked in my own prison
i'm not so sure
who i really am, what i am
what I see inside
the man I see in the mirror

somewhere between who i am, and who i ought to be
make belief my perception of what you see in me

I am not who I think I am
I am not who you think i am
I am who i think you think i am

someone dirty like me
unclean, and ugly as you can see
even though I try to hide
Lord you always find me
only to hold me in your loving embrace

you tell me you what you see in my soul
You showed me how much you love on the cross, I know

I am not who I think I am
I am not who you think i am
I'm not even who i think you think i am
I'm who God thinks I am
