Maybe I'M Plural

I said I’d be myself Now I say that was a lie They don’t know who I am Then again, neither do I But if one thing’s for sure Today I’m not the same I’m not who I was before Or who I was yesterday And the way that I’m today Is not the way I will remain I will never be the way I was that day I’m a different person This me is made to last And though I’ll change with time There is no more moving back Because ever since I left I’ve grown further from the past What happened is behind me Like wind blowing on my raft The wind is in my sails And the sea in my ears hums I don’t know what tomorrow holds But I say let it come Because every day I’m gone, Every day without a tear, I am more of someone And the future is more near
