[Intro]
In the shadow of what could be, I see the alternate hue
A world turned on its axis, painted fresh, painted new
Whispers of a different story, where the roads diverge and sway
In this mirror of reality, I find a different way
[Verse 1]
Stepping through the cracks, where history fell apart
Voices echo softly, remixing the beat of my heart
Could’ve been a hero in a timeline that’s not mine
Lost in the echoes, caught between the lines
[Pre-Chorus]
What if the hours had turned another way?
Would I be breathing light or drowning in the gray?
Every choice a twist in the fabric, a different dawn
In the alternate, I am reborn
[Chorus]
Welcome to the alternate timeline, where dreams reroute and realign
A universe split in the mind, with paths I’ll never find
Calling out into the void, a universe unexplored
In the alternate timeline, we’re forever more
[Verse 2]
Side streets and empty echoes, streets I’ve never known
Every moment a potential, seeds of change sown
Futures flicker like lightning, a dance in the dark
Chasing echoes of a spark, a possible spark
[Pre-Chorus]
If I could step through that cosmic divide?
Would I find peace or just more to hide?
A second chance or a subtle lie?
In the alternate, I fly
[Chorus]
Welcome to the alternate timeline, where dreams reroute and realign
A universe split in the mind, with paths I’ll never find
Calling out into the void, a universe unexplored
In the alternate timeline, we’re forever more
[Bridge]
Lost in the infinite, where every thought’s a new start
A canvas of what-ifs, painted by the heart
Is this my destiny or just a game?
In the mirror’s reflection, nothing’s quite the same
[Outro]
So I’ll wander through the shadows, chasing what could be
In the dance of the might-have-been, I find my liberty
The alternate’s waiting, just beyond the line
A world of endless choices, yours and mine
