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 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
