Someone I Used to Know

Hometown hero at the bar

Burned out high life superstar, you know

Kept the buzz to fill the hole

Love the lights, stole the show

Someone I used to know

Would stay another round

Someone I used to know

Ran himself in the ground

It's been a long time coming

Couldn't keep on running

Had to hit rock bottom to know

When you keep on losin'

With the path you're choosin'

And it's time to let go

Of someone that I used to know

Of someone that I used to know

Rides a high that tears him down

Hates himself and loves a crowd

The king of fools, a heavy crown

Didn't know he almost drown

Someone I used to know

Would stay another round

Someone I used to know

Ran himself in the ground

It's been a long time coming

Couldn't keep on running

Had to hit rock bottom to know

When you keep on losin'

With the path you're choosin'

And it's time to let go

Of someone that I used to know

It's been a long time coming

Couldn't keep on running

Had to hit rock bottom to know

When you keep on losin'

With the path you're choosin'

And it's time to let go

Of someone that I used to

Someone that I used to know
