The song "Someone Else" by Steve Angello feat. Dan Reynolds talks about a relationship that started out in chaos and pain. The persona reveals that all the pain they hold in their chest speaks to their partner, and yet their partner still wanted to be with them. However, as their partner got everything they wanted, the persona realizes that it's still not enough, and they're unwanted. The chorus poses a question of whether the persona should take their love to someone else. They acknowledge that their partner is not at their best, constantly looking inside themselves, and that they never wanted anything more than what they have now.
The lyrics explore themes of dissatisfaction, uncertainty, and the difficulty of making decisions in relationships. It portrays the confusion and sadness of being in a relationship that doesn't seem to be enough. The persona is unsure of what to do and where to go from here, which is relatable to many people who have been in a similar situation.
