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

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

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

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?
