A Different Man

Inside himself

He runs to look in the mirror

And the face that stares right back

Has never been any clearer

But look at the doubt in his eyes

He's not the one to blame

It was a different man, you know he's never been here

You can be so close, you can be so near

It was a different man, playing different cards

You can be so soft, you can be so hard

Inside himself

He follows the wrong directions

Perfect English words all right

But with the wrong inflections

But look at the dust at his feet

He's not the one she loves

It was a different man, you know he's never been found

You can be so up, you can be so down

It was a different man, you know he's never been there

You can be halfway, you can be all there

Inside himself,

He thinks that he looks the same

And the mind that thinks it all out

Never noticed any change

But look at the doubt in his eyes

He's not the one to blame
