Someone Else
Unveiling Regret: A Journey from Deceit to Redemption
Lyrics
Wish that I could tell you truth,
Expressing a desire to be honest but uncertain about forgiveness.
And know that you would somehow forgive me,
Hoping for forgiveness if the truth is revealed.
If guilt could kill I'd be dead by now.
Reflecting on the weight of guilt and its potential consequences.
I wish that I could show you my world,
Desiring to share one's world with the listener.
Cause in it we're happy together,
Imagining a happy and everlasting life together in that world.
Everlastingly.
Emphasizing the enduring happiness in the shared world.
You would never understand the reason behind it.
Acknowledging a lack of understanding from the listener.
I was a fool.
Admitting past foolishness or mistakes.
I have everything somebody needs to be happy,
Claiming to possess everything needed for happiness because of the listener.
Because I got you.
Acknowledging the importance of the listener in the speaker's life.
Don't ever think I was untrue,
Denying unfaithfulness but admitting to being someone else.
Cause I was someone else.
Confirming a change in identity or behavior.
Don't let your fears take over you,
Advising against letting fears control the listener.
Cause I wasn't myself.
Acknowledging a period of not being oneself.
Ooh, ooh,
Reiterating the theme of being someone else.
I was someone else.

-Let's move on to a better place.
Proposing a move to a better place or emotional state.
Let me show you that I do really care.
Expressing a genuine desire to show care for the listener.
And I'm serious, Ooh yeah.
Emphasizing sincerity in intentions.
I lay down beside you and when you look into my eyes,
Describing a deep emotional connection with the listener.
I wanna die.
Expressing a strong emotional response when looking into the listener's eyes.
All the memories that I wish I could forget,
Mentioning painful memories that haunt the speaker.
Start eating me up inside.
Describing the internal struggle caused by these memories.
Don't ever think I was untrue,
Reiterating the denial of unfaithfulness but admitting to being someone else.
Cause I was someone else.
Confirming a shift in identity or behavior.
Don't let your fears take over you,
Warning against succumbing to fears.
Cause I wasn't myself.
