    Honestly, I can't help but think that after the first part of the song he is singing this from the perspective of a man that is loosing his daughter to drugs or mental illness. His voice seems to be filled to the brim with extreme pain, desperation, anger, and self hatred. He feels like he failed her. He keeps wondering how he could have let this happen, convincing himself he could have prevented it if he had done things differently or seen the signs earlier. He doesn't know how to fix the situation and feels completely and utterly powerless to change things. He just hopes and prays that someway, somehow, she finds the strength within herself to overcome it. Just my take on his cover. The original by Sara Bareilles is one of my favorite songs of all time. Caleb Hyles definitely does it justice. Absolutely beautiful.

    My take on this: The original context of this song was about a woman describing herself, but when sung by a man, the context completely changes. It becomes poignant, powerful. A man reflecting on a relationship with a woman he took for granted. Regret on a scale so unfathomable, not even the music nor the words of this song would ever encompass the gravity of the misuse and abuse the man imparted upon his woman. As time passed, so did the window of opportunity he had to fix his mistakes. With all the chances gone, all he had left was a sense of nothingness and self-reflection on how and why things went wrong. There's nothing left but sorrow, misery, and pain beyond measure. He will not find forgiveness anywhere, much less inside his conscience and his soul. She's gone and she used to be his.

    This hurts a lot on a personal level, during a summer holiday a while back my dad had forced me into getting a summer job, back then i was very afraid to talk to him. he pressured me so much that i ended up getting a job without thinking if its one i actually wanted, i ended up in a shoe store, and with people shouting at me, kids kicking me in the face and basically all around stress from coworkers etc I ended up developing Crohns disease after i quit, my dad completely blames himself for what happened and is really suffering from seeing me in so much pain with my disease, part of it may have been his fault but of course i forgive him, he just doesn't forgive himself

    I've heard a bunch of versions of this song. And out of all the male covers, I always end up coming back to this one. I'm not going to say I know all about singing (i dont), but none of them feel...right. And then there's this version. The pacing of it. The range, the pitches, the high's and the lows. The way it seems like a whisper as if it's a song not meant to be heard. Like the voice is going to crack from holding back the tears. Those final notes on the chorus, holding on at the last few "She used to be mine" verses, wavering the voice. As i said, I've heard a number of them. And all of them are great. But this, in my opinion, is top quality. If people ask me for any songs to recommend from your repertoire, I'd put this one down as the first one to listen to without a doubt. I know it's a VERY late comment, but hey, better late than never. Keep strong my dude. Awesome job.

    This hits me strongly. When I was eight my mother died after years of abuse at a man's hands. I watched from the safety of my grandmothers home with my sister and even then the abuse was evident when id spend time at my mother's. She stayed with him and fought back against him when my half brother came into the picture. I lost my mother to this man and I hate him for it, but I owe him for my baby brother. My brothers not what I asked for but he's here and I love him more than life its self. I regret to this day that my brother was the one who had to see the abuse on a day by day basis. This may not fit the song quite right but every time I listen it brings back those memories good and bad. It makes me feel closer to her.

    This song reminds me so much of my daughter, Eithne, especially your version. I lost her to Acute Myelogenous Leukemia in 2016 "She's imperfect but she tries: fighting her disease/trying to stay strong for me. She is good, but she lies: Her physical pain/chemo pain. She is hard on herself, broken, and won't ask for help: Her body failing to meet treatment goals and the mental/emotional toll taken on her. She is lonely most of the time: having to be in hospital the alone for hours at a time whilst I was required to work to pay for her treatments. She is gone but she used to be mine: self explanatory." Those lyrics hit me the hardest. I raised her as a single father, since she was 18 months old. She would be turning 14 in April of this year(2019).

I know you're S class, but these heartfelt covers just convey so much emotion - they kill me, and I love every single nuance, every second of it. It doesn't get better than this. It's minimalistic, but strong and powerful at the same time. PERFECT!

    It's not simple to say That most days I don't recognize me That these shoes and this apron That place and its patrons Have taken more than I gave them It's not easy to know I'm not anything like I used be, although it's true I was never attention's sweet center I still remember that girl She's imperfect, but she tries She is good, but she lies She is hard on herself She is broken and won't ask for help She is messy, but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone, but she used to be mine It's not what I asked for Sometimes life just slips in through a back door And carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true And now I've got you And you're not what I asked for If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back For a chance to start over and rewrite an ending or two For the girl that I knew Who'll be reckless, just enough Who'll get hurt, but who learns how to toughen up When she's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love And then she'll get stuck And be scared of the life that's inside her Growing stronger each day 'til it finally reminds her To fight just a little, to bring back the fire in her eyes That's been gone, but used to be mine Used to be mine She is messy, but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone, but she used to be mine

    I’m open and ready. You have a good solid sound that’s hard to find in singers today not saying that there aren’t people like you, but you’re unique. You don’t need any auto tune you have that beautiful raw voice that you just want to replay over an over. I look to your songs to help me because you use so much emotion you feel the music and you let it flow through you instead of blurting out words in a rhythmic tone. I can feel your sadness through your voice and that’s what makes it so much better. I inspire to be just like you, but I can’t sing for crap. I’m sure you already know all the things I told you, but what is it going to hurt hearing them for a second time. Caleb you make this world shine a little brighter when you do a song. You probably don’t even need background music to make a grown man cry and wallow in the corner
