• Someone Else? (full band version)

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

The chains i wore were mine,
Dragging me towards my fate
Planned for me long ago
I played by all their rules,
Went to their right schools
Who was i to question?

They used to say i was nowhere man
Heading down was my destiny
But yesterday i swear that was
Someone else, not me

Here i stand at the crossroad's edge
Afraid to reach out for eternity
One step when i look down
I see someone else, not me

I know now who i am
If only for awhile
I recognize the changes
I feel like i did
Before the magic wore thin
And the baptism of stains began

Sacrifice, the always say
Is a sign of nobility
But where does one draw the line
In the face of injury?
I'm just trying to understand

Standing here at the crossroad's edge
Looking down at what i used to be
A drowning man, trying to stay afloat
Heavy with the past, but somehow keeping hope
That there's something more that is seen
But it's somewhere out of reach

So i keep looking back
Looking back and i see someone else

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

From where i stand at the crossroad's 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.

I keep looking back at someone else... me?
