Lyrics
Verse 1
[Reflective] [Introspective]
Did I ever stop to think about,
The life I'm striving to seek out,
A thousand opportunities,
Are knocking at my door,
With window panes and chain linked fences,
Always locked for my defenses,
I was looking in the wrong direction,
Hoping for something more.
Pre-Chorus
[Determined] [Resolute]
I'm back again, for the first time,
And here, I stand, and I'm alright,
No matter what might be dished out,
I can see it clearly now,
I'm moving forward, never back,
And finally know how.
Pre-Chorus
[Determined] [Resolute]
I'm back again, for the first time,
And here, I stand, and I'm alright,
No matter what might be dished out,
[muffled vocal]
I can see it clearly now,
Chorus
[Anthemic] [Uplifting] [Pop Punk] [Emo]
It's not about if,
It's not about now,
It's all about when,
It's all about how,
It's the times in between,
The random and routine,
It's the moments we know,
That we'll never let go.
Verse 2
[Reflective] [Introspective]
There's no use in looking back,
It will only leave me off track,
Over a thousand fears and risks to take,
Before I rest in peace,
With winding paths and forked off trails,
Making me question the details,
I know the choice is right and I,
Am raising all my sails.
Pre-Chorus
[Determined] [Resolute]
I'm back again, for the first time,
And here, I stand, and I'm alright,
No matter what might be dished out,
I can see it clearly now,
I'm moving forward, never back,
And finally know how.
No matter what might be dished out,
I can see it clearly now, [drop music vocals only]
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
[Reflective] [Determined]
There's no use in looking back,
It will only leave me off track,
Over a thousand fears and risks to take,
Before I rest in peace,
With winding paths and forked off trails,
Making me question the details,
I know the choice is right and I,
Am raising all my sails.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Determined] [Resolute]
I'm back again, for the first time,
And here, I stand, and I'm alright,
No matter what might be dished out,
I can see it clearly now,
[instrumental break]
[Verse 3]
[Reflective]
I've learned to trust the winding road,
With every step, my courage grows,
Facing the fears that held me down,
I rise above, reclaim my crown,
Each choice I make, a beacon bright,
Guiding me through the darkest night,
I'm stronger now, with open eyes,
Embracing life, no more disguise.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Determined] [Resolute]
I'm back again, for the first time,
And here, I stand, and I'm alright,
No matter what might be dished out,
I can see it clearly now,
[outro]
[reflective][introspective]
No matter what might be dished out,
I can see it clearly now,
I can see it clearly now,
[drop instruments]
I can see it clearly now.
[end]
[outro]
[reflective][introspective]
With winding paths and forked off trails,
Making me question the details,
I know the choice is right and I,
Am raising all my sails.
[fade out, end]
...I can see it clearly now.
[Outro]
[Reflective][Introspective]
With winding paths and forked off trails,
Making me question the details,
I know the choice is right and I,
Am raising all my sails...
