What Was - Benson Boone

Lyrics by：Benson Boone/Jack LaFrantz/Jason Suwito

Young standing on the edge of 21

Staring at the man that I've become sometimes

When I lose my control

He's dumb if you blink he'll blow up like a gun

Jumping to conclusions just for fun

That guy needs somebody to hold

Needs somebody he knows

Where the hell did she go

It kinda makes me feel like

I wish I could change my name

I wish I could start again

Fly me to a lonely place

Where you never see my face

So you never feel the pain of

What was

When you're standing in the rain

Calling out my name

Nothing's gonna change

What was

Cold driving through my neighborhood alone

Going past the house but I'm not home this time

I haven't been in a while

I haven't been

'Cause I'm far away in another state

Miles away from us

As you try to fan a dying flame

While ashes turn to dust

I wish I could change my name

I wish I could start again

Fly me to a lonely place

Where you'll never see my face

So you'll never feel the pain of

What was

When you're standing in the rain

Calling out my name

Nothing's gonna change

What was

Let me start over

The moment that I left you in tears

Is a memory that will haunt me for years

And years and years and years and years

Oh it still does

Oh it still does

What was

You need somebody to hold

Where the hell did I go
