Am        G       D          F
Never perform a dead defying act
            Am  G  D   F
And I won't fall
I am brave, I can save the very small
I am everything
But I'm nothing at all

Am   G       D                F
You compare my light to the sky
            Am      G       D                 F
Why do you try, to make me better than the divine
   Am                  G
It isn't the same, don't give it a name
 D  
Let me remain
 F
Let me remain

Chorus:
Am  C               F
I'm everything I've ever been
Am  C               F
I'm everything I've ever seen
Dm  Am                C
I'm everything that slowly falls
Dm  Am                  C
I'm everything and I'm nothing at all

I will perform a death-defying miracle
For someone with the chemicals to believe
I am brave, but I've gravely understated
I can't save you from what you've taken and leave

You compare our love to the sun
What have you done?
There's a limit to the prizes we've won
It isn't the same
Don't give it a name
Let me remain
Let me remain

Chorus:
I am everything I have ever been
I am everything I've ever seen
I'm everything that slowly falls
I'm everything and I'm nothing at all
I'm nothing at all

I will perform a death-defying magic show
For those of you that want to go someplace else
I'm brave, but I can't save you
From the things you won't change for yourself

You compare my light to the moon
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
It isn't the same
Don't give it a name
Let me remain
Let me remain

Chorus:
I am everything I have ever been
I am everything I have ever seen
I am everything that slowly falls
I am everything and I am nothing at all
I am nothing at all
