Someone You Used to Know Lyrics by The Dark Element

The Dark Element

2017

[Verse 1]
It's okay if you don't wanna talk right now
I know you have a lot of things to do
I can wait if you don't have the time right now
It's alright, I've got nowhere else to be
Tell me who you want me to be
For it seems the real me is not enough to make you happy
Tell me so I can become someone else
[Chorus]
For you, I could be a lifeboat
Could be a scapegoat
Be what you need
I know that for you
I could be a no-one
Could be just someone
You used to know
[Verse 2]
It's okay if you don't wanna meet tonight
I've got wine and I can live in hope
The hour's growing late and I don't wanna fight
Foul and bitter words have never helped no one
[Pre-Chorus]
Still I wonder what it is that you see
Is she such a beauty
Whom against I just can't compete?
Tell me so I can become just like her
[Chorus]
For you, I can be a mother
I can be a lover
Be what you need
I know that for you
I could be a no-one
Could be just someone
You used to know
[Bridge]
Since you left, I haven't even washed the sheets
Or the scent of your perfume from my skin
It's okay, I know you don't like promises
Still I play the game impossible to win
[Chorus]
For you, I can be an angel
I can be a virgin
Can be a whore
So tell me, for you
Am I just a no-one?
Am I just someone
You used to know?
[Chorus]
For you, I can be an angel
I can be a virgin
Can be a whore
So tell me, for you
Am I just a no-one?
Am I just someone
You used to know?
[Outro]
It's okay if you don't wanna talk right now
