[Verse 1]
With the sunrise
I felt a chill and saw winter's first signs
Anticipation, Preparation for the ice cold
Little did I know just what this forecast foretold
Where I would go, where I would find home
[Pre-Chorus]
Something else has changed with the seasons
As the leaves fall with the cold winds--/
And I remember the moment it began
Guess it got a bit out of hand--/
[Chorus]
'Cause I can't stand out here waiting
For someone to stop the hail
And I can't lie in this coffin
While holding the hammer and nail
I can't expect you to save me
To rescue these feelings
I don't know what to do
When you've become someone
Someone new
[Verse 2]
And it happens every few years
With each cycle comes new fears
I've been on dry land for so long
I forgot about all the tears
But I'm learning how to sail without a fleet
How to stand on my own feet
Looking up at the flash of stormy seas
I feel the lightning course through me
[Pre-Chorus]
Something else has changed with the seasons
As the lakes freeze, I'm an o-cean--/
And I remember the moment it began
All that I couldn't un-der-stand--/
[Chorus]
'Cause I can't stand out here waiting
For someone to stop the hail
And I can't lie in this coffin
While holding the hammer and nail
I can't expect you to save me
To rescue these feelings
I don't know what to do
When you've become someone
Someone new
(I don't recognize who you are)
[Bridge]
From your saccharine words rotting your teeth
Tell me what am I supposed to believe
When your smile seems taped to your cheeks
What facade are you donning for me?
Suspicion overcame me
A resolution so bittersweet
[Pre-Chorus]
Something else has changed with the seasons
As the leaves fall with the cold winds--/
And I remember the moment it began
Guess it got a bit out of hand--/
[Final Chorus]
'Cause I can't stand out here waiting
For someone to stop the hail
And I can't lie in this coffin
While holding the hammer and nail
I can't expect you to save me
To rescue these feelings
Now I know what to do
I will become someone...
Someone who is used to the stillness of waters
I'm renewed, I won't run away from my own solitude
I'm the moon, the earth, the solstice, the cycle
I'm renewed, I won't mourn about what's lost
When I'm someone new
I'm someone new--/ Ooh
