Lewis Capaldi: Someone You Loved

I'm going under and this time I fear there's no one to save me
This all or nothing really got a way of driving me crazy
I need somebody to heal
Somebody to know
Somebody to have
Somebody to hold
It's easy to say
But it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you numbed all the pain

Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

I'm going under and this time I fear there's no one to turn to
This all or nothing way of loving got me sleeping without you
Now, I need somebody to know
Somebody to heal
Somebody to have
Just to know how it feels
It's easy to say 
But it's never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you helped me escape

Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

And I tend to close my eyes when it hurts sometimes
I fall into your arms
I'll be safe in your sound 'til I come back around

For now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

But now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you're not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved

Interpretation of Someone You Loved

In the song “Somebody You Loved”, the narrator tells us that he feels lonely an helpless because his girlfriend or wife has left him. And that happened after the narrator has gotten used to the woman. It is not exactly explained how she helped him, but the emotional bond between him and her is mentioned several times. It can be concluded that the narrator still needs her emotional support.  

The phrase “I let my guard down” was repeated several times and that indicates that the narrator has offended the woman in spite of their deep relationship. He has taken her love for granted: “I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved”. But he realizes this too lately because nowhere is mentioned that he could get a second chance.
