Somebody New

I finished what they said I had to do
and right before my life turned forty two
They said that I was clean and cleared to go
back to the outside world I used to know

But I can’t go back to where I was ‘cause
....I’m somebody new

Before this happened to me I was stressed
my life in general was such a mess
But I kept doing things that made me fall
until the day that I received the call

Now I can’t go back to what I’d done
No I can’t rewind the tape that’s spun
.....I’m somebody new

‘Cause after everything that I’ve been through
I see the valley from a different view
and I’m riding sliding home to you as somebody new

Funny what a lot of pain can give
A whole new meaning to the life we live
Now I appreciate the life I’ve got
I plan to live it and to love a lot

So I can’t go back and be the angry man
‘cause I’ve come inside and now I’ve got a peaceful plan
for somebody new
'Cause after everything that I've been through
I see the planet from a different view
and I'm riding gliding home to you
As somebody new

Now Dr. O will scan me quarterly
until he's sure that I am cancer free
Back to the hospital and wait in line
so he can nuke my body one more time

But I can’t complain of what they done to me
‘cause I’m still around and got some extra time to be
somebody new...brand new...somebody new
