Q&A
I Wish I Was Someone Better Lyrics
Chorus:
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
What should I do, what should I do
When I'm the one who can't get through?
What should I do, what should I do
When I'm the one, hey, I'm the one to blame?
Verse I:
I can't see past this chance
For us to reconcile these doubts
They've all gone on for far too long
Yeah, it goes on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
Chorus
Verse II:
Just not built for this role
And all the time much better spent
But it all drags on for far too long
And it drags on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
Chorus
I wish I was someone better x12
Made a mistake x16
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
Made a mistake, I made a mistake
I wear the scars to show my shame
When I'm the one who can't get through?
What should I do, what should I do
When I'm the one, hey, I'm the one to blame?
I can't see past this chance
For us to reconcile these doubts
They've all gone on for far too long
Yeah, it goes on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
Just not built for this role
And all the time much better spent
But it all drags on for far too long
And it drags on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on
Made a mistake x16

Great band, great song. The meaning is pretty clear, could be about a relationship or a friendship.
Could be about depression too. <p> This band's pretty easy to understand with lyrics.
i intially interpreted this as not living up to someone elses expectations, but now you mention depression...

i now see it not neccessarily as depression, but feeling you aren't meeting expectations, within yourself. not sure if that makes sense or not....
