[verse]
A#m
Keep you in the dark
               Gm7b5    F#maj
You know they all     pretend

A#m
Keep you in the dark
           Gm7b5   F#maj
And so it all     began

[verse]
A#m
Send in your skeletons
                                 D#/G    F#
Sing as their bones go marching in... again
A#m
They need you buried deep
                               D#/G
The secrets that you keep are ever ready
F#maj    G#
Are you ready?

A#m
I'm finished making sense
               G#
Done pleading ignorance
       D#/G             F#  (G#)
That whole       defense

A#m
Spinning infinity, boy
              G#
The wheel is spinning me
       D#/G         F#    (G#)
It's never-ending, never-ending
D#
Same old story...


[chorus]
A#m
What if I say I'm not like the others?
A#m                (A#m)  (Cm)   (C#)    (Gm7b5)  D#/G
What if I say I'm not   just   another one        of your plays?
D#
You're the pretender
F#                        (G#)
What if I say that I will never surrender?

A#m
What if I say I'm not like the others?
A#m                (A#m)  (Cm)   (C#)    (Gm7b5)  D#/G
What if I say I'm not   just   another one        of your plays?
D#
You're the pretender
F#                        (G#)
What if I say that I will never surrender?

[verse]
A#m
In time or so I'm told
                         D#/G            F# (G#)
I'm just another soul for sale... oh, well

A#m
The page is out of print
           G#
We are not permanent
      D#/G        F#   (G#)
We're temporary, temporary
D#
Same old story...

[interlude]
A#5
I'm the voice inside your head
A#5
You refuse to hear
A#5
I'm the face that you have to face
A#5
Mirrored in your stare

A#5
I'm what's left, I'm what's right
A#5
I'm the enemy
A#5
I'm the hand that will take you down
A#5
Bring you to your knees

A#5
So who are you?
A#5
Yeah, who are you?
A#5
Yeah, who are you?
A#5
Yeah, who are you?

A#5
Yeah, who are you?
