Producer: Alice in Chains Nick Raskulinecz

[Verse 1]
I'm a little alike
You before things had changed
Inner compass aligned
All this feels rearranged

[Chorus]
Tell me, does it matter
If I'm still here, or I'm gone?
Shifting to the after
An impostor, I'm not the one you know

[Verse 2]
I look the same outside
Nearly me even though
I carry something I hide
Underneath the one you know

[Chorus]
Tell me, does it matter
If I'm still here, or I'm gone?
Shifting to the after
An impostor, soldiers on
Are you surprised black water flows
From wells run dry?
I'm not the one you know

[Bridge]
Lay me out with flowered guilt
Watch the explosions falling
Cannot live within this tilt
Carryin' over
I'm not the one you know

[Chorus]
Tell me, does it matter
If I'm still here, or I'm gone?
Shifting to the after
An impostor, soldiers on
Are you surprised black water flows
From wells run dry?
I'm not the one you know
I'm not the one you know

Alice in Chains

Alice in Chains are a Seattle-based rock band. They rose to international fame in the early 1990s as part of the ‘grunge’ movement. They are one of the most critically and commercially acclaimed acts of the 90s. Their first 3 studio albums all went multi-platinum and they have received 8 Grammy nominations for Best Hard Rock performance (sadly, never winning once).

Their unique sound comes from the harmonized vocals of co-founders Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell, as showcased in some of their biggest songs like “No Excuses” from Jar of Flies, “Angry Chair” from Dirt and “Again” from the self-titled album. Cantrell also serves as the primary songwriter and guitarist of the band.

The band was never restricted to grunge. Cantrell believes it to be heavy metal; and indeed a lot of modern heavy metal bands cite Alice in Chains as an influence, including Metallica for Death Magnetic.
