I was plucked from the river's tide
Called down from the mountain where I used to hide
When someone had the courage to tell me I'd been blind
You can't see the forest for the trees
And I'd never felt part of the royalty
But my whole life, they were laying at my feet
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say: isn't life strange?
Take my hand, I'm reaching out to you
Use my voice however you're wanting to
You can ease a restless mind when you change the point of view
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say: isn't life strange?

I was plucked from the river's tide
Called down from the mountain where I used to hide
When someone had the courage to tell me I'd been blind
You can't see the forest for the trees
And I'd never felt part of the royalty
But my whole life, they were laying at my feet
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say: isn't life strange?
Take my hand, I'm reaching out to you
Use my voice however you're wanting to
You can ease a restless mind when you change the point of view
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say: isn't life strange?
Called down from the mountain where I used to hide
When someone had the courage to tell me I'd been blind
You can't see the forest for the trees
And I'd never felt part of the royalty
But my whole life, they were laying at my feet
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say: isn't life strange?
Take my hand, I'm reaching out to you
Use my voice however you're wanting to
You can ease a restless mind when you change the point of view
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say
I don't see how far the ripples go from my island
Standing here I'm on my own, something crawling 'neath my skin
And as far as excuses go, paper thin
When there's nothing left to cover up the shame, you say: isn't life strange?
