Running uphill, swimming upstream
Choosing this life, I refused to concede
I never knew what it meant to be free
I'm not the man I wanted to be
Soul-searching leaves, a murder scene
With evidence of such catastrophe
Mirrors reflect what the world doesn't see
I'm not the man I wanted to be
We are so cruel
When old gives way to new
When old gives way to new
To new
I know this one hurts
I know this one hurts
We are so cruel
When old gives way to new
When old gives way to new
To new
I know this one hurts
I know this one hurts
I know this one hurts
I'm not the man I wanted to be
