someone else

everyday i start by wondering-

what was it,

i didn't do that i could have?

what was it,

i could've given that i didn't?

who was it,

i could've been, but wasn't?

who was it,

that you had wished for me to be?

wondering,

if only i had...been thinner?

if only i had...been smarter?

if only i had...been prettier?

if only i had been...someone else.

if only i had given more?

if only i had taken less?

if only i had loved more?

if only i had had more to offer?

if only i had been...someone else.

'cause the way i see it,

that's the only way,

i could've ever been enough for you.

the only way,

you would've been able to love me-

the only way you could've loved me-

if i could have just been... someone else.
