Someone New

(album: 10 Songs That Happened When You Left Me With My Stupid Heart - 2018)

When someone stole your superpowers
And said, "I'm sorry sir"
Well what's the use
When you're naked in a phone booth
They traitors make their way to earth
And tilt their heads into their cellphones
Scurry like a school of fish
You mean I'm all alone

So you decided to smile
Alright I don't mind listening
I never did stop long enough to let you whisper anything
You say you waited a while
Like all the buildings in Manhattan, glistening
But why are you stiffening
This is a christening

For someone new (Woah)
Someone, anyone who isn't you
Someone hardcore and true (Woah)
Someone sad cause I'm sad too
Someone new (Woah)
Someone, anyone who isn't you
Someone hardcore and true (Woah)
Someone sad cause I am too

So no more X-Ray vision now
For me to see inside of me
I guess I'll have to open up
Oh man I wish I had a shortcut
For one more messed up moment
And a thousand one copy/paste
Copies of our wasted love
You were everything I dreamed of

So you decided to smile
Alright I don't mind listening
I never did stop long enough to see your skin was blistering
You say you waited a while
Like all the smog around the city thickening
To hell with petitioning
Now I'm to listen in

For someone new
Someone, anyone who isn't you
Someone hardcore and true
Someone sad cause I'm sad too
Someone new (Woah)
Someone, anyone who isn't you
Someone hardcore and true (Woah)
Someone sad cause I am too
