Someone That I Used to Be Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Something's in the water
I'm starting to prefer the wine
I drink too much sometimes
I think too much sometimes
Having trouble giving grace
To every one of my mistakes
I keep too much inside
I think I'm getting tired
Closer than I've ever been
To finding my own medicine
To healing this disease of mine
Looking at the face inside the mirror
With kinder eyes

[Chorus]
Someone that I used to be
Someonе that I used to need
Always saw the worst in me
It's somеone that I used to be
Someone that I used
Someone that I used to be
Someone that I used
Someone that I used to be

[Verse 2]
Caught up in the war inside
Ive been losing my own mind
Angels and demons fight
I just want some peace and quiet
I'm having trouble letting go
Of everything I used to know
I know that I've been changing
Don't mind that I've been changing
Heart of mine keeps beating on
I'm learning how to face the dawn
My soul is shining in the dark
So blinded by reality
I lost sight of my galaxy
Who am I to tame the stars
[Chorus]
Someone that I used to be
Someone that I used to need
Always saw the worst in me
It's someone that I used to be
Someone that I used
Someone that I used to be
Someone that I used
Someone that I used to be

[Outro]
Someone that I used
Someone that I used to be
Someone that I used
Someone that I used to be

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
