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