Berikut ini lirik lagu “What Was” dari Benson Boone.

[Verse 1]
Young, standing on the edge of twenty-one
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Needs somebody he knows
Where the hell did she go?
It kinda makes me feel like

[Chorus]
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 th? rain, calling out my name
Nothing's gonna change
What was

[Verse 2]
Cold, driving through my neighborhood alon?
Going past the house, but I'm not home this time
I haven't been in a while
I haven't been

[Pre-Chorus]
'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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) Oh, it still does
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) Oh, it still does
What was

[Outro]
You need somebody to hold
Where the hell did I go?
