Stranger in my Skin

[Intro] [Verse] Every line across this mirror Looks a little deeper now Silver glass and tired eyes Trying to figure myself out You wear confidence like armor Standing taller than I do Every choice I should've made Looks like it somehow made you You got the brains and all the answers I got scars that never healed Funny how the same beginning Led us somewhere so unreal Tell me, stranger staring back How'd you become what I could not? Is it too late to seal the cracks? [Break] [Pre-Chorus] Was it one turn? One mistake? One door I never chose? [Chorus] To the, Stranger in my skin Wearing my face again One life went right One life gave in You're everything I've never been Or maybe I'm the ghost within Tell me which of us can feel? Tell me which of us is real? Stranger, in my skin [Verse] I see shadows move behind us Like old sins I can't outrun Every regret I buried deep Still reflects in everyone You say discipline built kingdoms I let anger take the wheel You learned how to tame the darkness I learned how to make it real Late at night I hear your voice Inside every doubt I keep Like a judge inside the mirror Who never lets me sleep Tell me, stranger staring back... What would happen if we switched tracks? [Pre-Chorus] Was it one choice? One weakness? One wound that never closed? [Chorus] To the, Stranger in my skin Wearing my face again One life went right One life gave in You're everything I've never been Or maybe I'm the ghost within Tell me which of us can feel? Tell me which of us is real? Stranger, in my skin [Bridge] You know my secrets You know my lies You know the monster I try to hide Every ugly thought Every jealous prayer Every piece of darkness You were always there (Build) Maybe you aren't the stranger Maybe it's been me all along... [Break] [Verse] Now I see the blood between us Not upon your hands but mine Every compromise and shortcut Left another warning sign You became the man they trusted I became the name they fear Two reflections from one shadow Separated by the years And the face I've been accusing Looks afraid of me tonight Because the truth behind the mirror Is neither one of us was right [Musical interlude - guitar solo] [Final Chorus] Stranger in my skin Wearing my face again One life found grace One life found sin But every monster starts within Every saint and every sin Living underneath the skin Tell me which of us is real Stranger in my skin Stranger in my skin [Outro]
