The Variant (rough)

V5.5

[Verse 1] I can't help but to think, That somewhere out there, In the vastness of space, There's another me, My voice, my face... He never knew the things I've seen, A smile that never faded, His hands, all but clean, Never knew the things I've traded. Only see's the beauty in the stars, Never saw his world come apart. [Instrumental break] [Verse 2] He wakes up bright, Still annoyed by the sunlight, Peaking through the blinds, Brush, breakfast, it's coffee time. Kisses her goodbye, Grabs his keys, Makes sure the door is locked, Then off he goes to punch the clock. [Chorus] I can't help but to think, That somewhere out there, In the vastness of space, There's another me, My voice, my face, All the same, But he never knew the things I've seen. [Verse 3] He smiles, he laughs, For all the while, He does it in style, The jokes he cracks. All is simple and plain, Complains about everything. He's a stranger to 'Loss', It doesn't know his name, Never paid the cost, Doesn't know shame. [Chorus] Sometimes, I can't help but to think, That somewhere out there, In the vastness of space, There are other me's, My voice, my face, All the same, But they never knew the things I've seen. [Bridge] If you are out there, Then I wish you the best! Live life without a care, Don't settle for less. So much I've lost, And many more to come! Ghosts in my thoughts, The past I mourn. [Pre-Chorus] I didn't know how good I had it, Until it was gone, It was the best while it lasted, Now with scars, I carry on. [Chorus] I can't help but to think, That somewhere out there, In the vastness of space, There's another me, My voice, my face... He never knew the things I've seen, A smile that never faded, His hands, all but clean, Laughter is not a strange language. Never seen any last breaths, His nights stay short of death. Only see's the beauty in the stars, Never saw his world come apart.
