"Someone Else" a Redler & Hook original

[Hook]

Redler posted this awesome track here https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=29005.0 yesterday. I saw it this morning and wrote the words on the way to work. Just got home and hashed out the vocals.

Someone Else

music written & performed by Redler
lyrics written & performed by Hook

I looked inside my brain
and I found a place that I
felt a little less insane
So I thought that I should try

I went about my way
and I tried to incorporate
the things I learned that day
But I wasn't so fortunate

To find myself I lost myself
or maybe that was just someone else
I was never very good with names
faces Maybe but they still all look the same

Now I'm a little more in tune
and I think I'm ready to improvise
hope I don't clear the room
but I could use a jolt to bring me down to size

Wise perhaps beyond my years
if wisdom is measured by mistakes
And if currency were tears
Then an ocean I would make

[Redler]

Holy moly!! Stunning job with the lyric and vocals! Listened to it via phones and it sounds really good! Nice multitracking vocals and panned so well. The both versions (this and Orh/Päivi) are excellent.

Wow excellent  I was thinking about this as well.
I normally dont listen to other versions until I've finished
My own take,but damn it I couldn't help myself lol.
Excellent job Hook and s great backer Kari.
Bravo to all.

Another great lyrical spin on top of Kari's rocking backer. Great vocals, Hook - especially love the vocals on the chorus - they sound HUGE!!

A great collaboration, guys.

Nice Quick work.....Don't want to break it down too much as it doesn't need it

I personally think though this is first person at times I would reference that others can be SOMEONE ELSE....It may bring the listener in closer.  I think it still implies it is about you....I know it's changing POV but it is also universal...Not only did the SINGER lose himself but the LISTENER finds himself when he loses himself.  Plus it is present tense

To find myself I lost myself
or maybe that was just someone else

You find yourself when you lose yourself
or maybe that was just someone else

Just a random blurb.....
