Tyler said the following about the song in the discription of the music video:
“I had the chance, a LONG TIME ago, to sit and write this song with my friend in Matchbox 20, Kyle Cook. This is what came about.”
If we only have tonight
There's something you should know
I've been trying to get this right
But still learning to let go
So I'll put away the alcohol
That always covered up
Everything I'm feeling
That was never good enough
If it's not me, let it be someone
Someone you need, that you can rely on
I hope they can see, exactly what I see
So innocent and sweet, the best of everything
If it's not me
And if I'm being real
All my insecurities
Are finally catching up with me
Yeah
And if I'm really being honest
I just did what I wanted all the time
I was looking for a heart that was pure enough
To give me the real stuff
If it's not me, let it be someone
Someone you need, that you can rely on
I hope they can see, exactly what I see
So innocent and sweet, the best of everything
If it's not me
So lean in closer
Let me whisper once again
If it's not me, let it be someone
Someone you need, that you can rely on
I hope they can see, exactly what I see
So innocent and sweet, the best of everything
If it's not me
If it's not me
