[Verse 1] Morning on the sill tea steam in the pane I told myself, come on we can start again One voice says, “Clean the floor” one says, “Write it down” one says, “You’re doing fine” I say, “Look around” My hands are on the banister my feet know the way I can be a new man I can make the day [Pre-Chorus] Then one of them laughs from behind my teeth Says, “Who gets to choose which of us you keep?” And I smile too hard at the crack in the wall Three sets of footsteps one body, one hall [Chorus] I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are Which one of us is the one gone far? I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are [Verse 2] “Don’t call me broken” says the voice in blue “You’re the one who trembles when the kettle’s through” “No, I’m the calm one” says the voice in red “You’re the one who leaves every thought half-dead” “I’m the sane one,” says the voice in white Then the room leans sideways and it turns to night I laugh at a shadow with my own face split Every answer I own comes apart a bit [Pre-Chorus] Now the hallway bends like it knows my name The pictures on the wall keep changing the frame One says, “Run now” one says, “Stay and burn” One says, “We’re still in charge” one says, “No, it’s your turn” [Chorus] I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are Which one of us is the one gone far? I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are [Bridge] Doctor says, “Take these” with a steady hand Little white mercy in a paper band And the loud ones fade to a low, dull hum Not gone, just distant like a war turned numb But in the quiet they circle back Three soft knocks on the edge of black “Who’s the crazy one?” they sing in the dark All three point at me then they all restart [Final Chorus] I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are If I hold still will the pieces scar? I know you know I know you’re not who I think you are [Outro] Take the edge off take the edge off tell me my name take the edge off The room goes dim the voices thin and I’m still here and I’m still in
