Lyrics That Wasn’t Me - Brandi Carlile

Hang on, just hang on for a minute
I've got something to say
I'm not asking you to move on or forget it
But these are better days

To be wrong all along and admit it
Is not amazing grace
But to be loved like a song you remember
Even when you've changed

Tell me, did I go on a tangent?
Did I lie through my teeth?
Did I cause you to stumble on your feet?

Did I bring shame on my family?
Did it show when I was weak?
Whatever you see, that wasn't me
That wasn't me, oh-oh, that wasn't me

When you're lost you will toss every lucky coin you'll ever trust
And you'll hide from your God like he ever turned his back on us
And you'll fall all the way to the bottom and land on your own knife
And you'll learn who you are, even if it doesn't take your life

Tell me, did I go on a tangent?
Did I lie through my teeth?
Did I cause you to stumble on your feet?

Did I bring shame on my family?
Did it show when I was weak?
Whatever you see, that wasn't me
That wasn't me, oh-oh, that wasn't me

But I want you to know that you'll never be alone
I wanna believe

Do I make myself a blessing to everyone I meet?
When you fall I will catch you on your feet
Do I spend time with my family?
Did it show when I was weak?

When that's what you see, that will be me
That will be me
That will be me
That will be me
