This song was mistakenly released onto SoundCloud on the 7th of December 2023 before being removed only a few hours later. Seven days later, hiraeth announced through his Discord server that “take somebody else” would be officially released on the 25th of December 2023.
hiraeth has since commented...
[Verse 1]
Things I held
I'm dying to go, but she holds me in place, I won't run
And when I arrive at Heaven's gates
Will you know me? You think about me?
'Cause I'm dyin' to know if you still care
Held by my feelings, I'm holding 'em bare
[Verse 2]
Caught in a forest and then a landslide got to me
Fields of roses, I'm pissin' blood out of my arteries
So I can be with you, I'm countin' leaves
I'm in a field, I've got my head in the trees
(But I keep, but I keep) But I keep hearin' voices, they're not comin' out, yeah
I keep tryna hide, but they keep comin' round
I'm tryna build a wall and keep myself out
You won't recognize me, not mysеlf now
[Chorus]
Give him back to me
Take somеbody else
Give him back to me
Take somebody else
[Verse 3]
Don't talk about my problems like you have none
My addiction only spiked because I love someone
When I'm next, don't act like you care
Treated like a joke, you know it's not fair
Put yourself in my position, wouldn't last a week
And all this time that I have, I do not care to eat
I sort of feel like nobody's aware of me
It sort of feels like none of you could care for me
Take the shit from my back and what I wear
Take the food from my stomach and strip me bare
Take everything that I own, I wouldn't care
And it's still never enough and that's not fair
[Chorus]
Give him back to me
Take somebody else
Give him back to me
Take somebody else
Give him back to me
Take somebody else
Give him back to me
Take somebody else
