"The Someone" lyrics

I haven't felt like myself for awhile now
I kinda hate myself some days
And I've tried to make you love me
But if I'm honest, would you stay?
And I have half a mind to tell you
All the things I shouldn't say
Can you even tell I'm trying to be anything but fake?
But I guess

I'm just trying to be the someone you like
I'm just trying to be a someone who tries, and I try
But I keep walking out of your mind
I'm just trying to be the someone you like

I had to run right back to Ireland
I went and broke down by the lake
'Cause I'd slowly been eroded by the ways
That I drained my art for eyes
Verified

I'm just trying to be the someone you like
Yeah, I'm just trying to be a someone who tries, and I try
But I keep falling out of your mind
Yeah, I'm just trying to be the someone you like

On show, still hide
Half truth, still lies
Yeah, 'cause I'm just trying to be the someone you like
On show, still hide
Half truth, still lies
Yeah, I'm just trying to be the someone you like
On show, still hide
Half truth, still lies
I'm just trying to be the someone you like
