mothersound - the man i used to know lyrics
i never saw myself writing a song
about how you went and did us all wrong
this is a letter to a father from his son
about how his world became undone
i am a mess and i am lost
i can’t place the words to my thoughts
i want to understand but i can’t believe
a single word that you’re trying to tell me
but at the end of the day
i’ve lost all my trust in you
i have this memory of you that i can’t let go
it’s engraved in the root of my soul
it’s the only thought i want to hold
but i know you’re not the man i used to know
i watched the drugs slowly tear you apart
and leave a blackness inside of your heart
i wish that things could go back to the start
before you turned our world into a never ending dark
you call yourself a man
but after all you’ve done
i feel like i can see
the person you’ve become
when i was just a kid, i always looked up to you
like any child would to the man that helped him grow
there is no coming back from what you’ve done
i made a peace with myself when you were not around
despite your efforts to unite through blood
i’ll always keep this wall between you and i
i have this memory of you that i can’t let go
it’s engraved in the root of my soul
it’s the only thought i want to hold
but i know you’re not the man i used to know
i watched the drugs slowly tear you apart
and leave a blackness inside of your heart
i wish that things could go back to the start
before you turned our world into a never ending dark
you found a wife, you found a home
a little family to call your own
you raised your kids to be like you
but you had secrets that we never knew
to you this place, it felt like a prison
you were lost without a sense of direction
but you found solace in the heart
of a woman who tore us apart
