[Verse 1]
When I fell from grace
I never realized
How deep the flood was around me
A man whose life was toil
Was like a kettle left to boil
And the water left these scars on me
[Verse 2]
I know now who I am
If only for a while
I recognize the changes
I feel like I did before the
Magic wore thin and the "baptism
Of stains" began
[Pre-Chorus 1]
They used to say I was
Nowhere, man
Heading down
Was my destiny
But yesterday, I swear
That was someone else not me
[Chorus 1]
Here I stand at the crossroads edge
Afraid to reach out for eternity
One step, when I look down
I see someone else not me
[Bridge]
Looking back
Looking back and I see
Someone else
[Pre-Chorus 2]
All my life they said I
Was going down
But I'm still standing
Stronger, proud
And today I know there's
So much more I can be
I think I finally understand
[Chorus 2]
From where I stand at the crossroads edge
There's a path leading out to sea
And from somewhere
Deep in my mind
Sirens sing out loud
Songs of doubt
As only they know how
But one glance back reminds, and I see
Someone else not me
[Outro]
I keep looking back
At someone else... me?
