Someone Else's Problem
Freedom Found: Escaping Heartache in Someone Else's Shadow
Lyrics
Now she's someone else's problem, and I'm finally free
He's relieved that she's now with someone else, no longer his concern, allowing him to feel free.
From all the daily heartache and night time misery
Expressing the end of daily pain and nighttime sorrow he experienced while with her.
Troubles they're all over, she's just a memory
All the problems associated with her are in the past, existing only as memories.
Someone else's problem, that's all she is to me
To him, she's merely a matter for someone else to deal with, not his problem anymore.
I was goin' crazy, out of my mind
He felt his sanity slipping away due to the situation.
Closer to the edge day by day
He was getting closer to a breaking point each day.
Step by step, walkin' that line
Gradually approaching a limit or a dangerous situation.
When another fool stepped in to take my place
Someone else came along and took his place in the relationship.
Now she's someone else's problem, and I'm finally free
Reiterates the relief of her being someone else's issue, freeing him from pain.
From all the daily heartache and night time misery
Describing the end of suffering he experienced on a daily basis due to the relationship.
Troubles they're all over, she's just a memory
His problems with her are history, residing only in his memories.
Someone else's problem, that's all she is to me
She's now solely the responsibility of someone else, no longer his concern.
I was always out of money, workin' overtime
He faced financial struggles while she spent recklessly, worsening his situation.
While she ran up bills, I couldn't pay
She accumulated debts he couldn't cover with his earnings.
All my friends say, she's lookin' fine
Others might find her attractive now that she's gone, but it doesn't affect him.
Since she's been gone, I feel the same
His feelings haven't changed despite her absence.
Now she's someone else's problem, and I'm finally free
Reiteration of his relief that she's no longer his problem, emphasizing his freedom.
From all the daily heartache and night time misery
Emphasizing the end of emotional pain he experienced while with her.
Troubles they're all over, she's just a memory
All troubles associated with her are now just memories.
Someone else's problem, that's all she is to me
She's now solely the concern of someone else, not affecting him anymore.
Someone else's problem, that's all she is to me
Reaffirming that she's completely the responsibility of someone else now.
