[Verse 1] I wore my sins like medals won Accepted second place from none I chased the dark and called it light Told myself that wrong was right [Pre-chorus] You saw through every lie I'd spun And showed me what I had become [Chorus] The man I was is gone today Now I try things a different way You never tried to pull me through I found truth in a look from you Maybe you'll never take my hand Maybe that never was the plan But I can finally see because I'm not the man I was [Verse 2] You saw right through my thin disguise You never bought my alibis The man I thought I'd grown to be Was just a slave to vanity [Pre-chorus] You spoke a truth without a sound That turned my whole world upside down [Bridge / Middle 8] The mirror wasn't hard to find I just ignored it all this time You never tore my world apart Just held that mirror to my heart You never promised anything Yet somehow you changed everything I found the man I should've been The day you showed the man within [Chorus] The man I was is gone today Now I try things a different way You never tried to pull me through I found truth in a look from you Maybe you'll never take my hand Maybe that never was the plan But I can finally see because I'm not the man I was [Outro] Now, I don't need you by my side To know I've left that man behind You gave me more than love because Now I’m not the man I was
