He's Not Him

Went for my favorite lipstick, but I thought twice
He told me he didn't like it, but I thought it was nice
Going out to have a drink with some old friends
Can't put down my phone, 'cause in a minute he'd call again

Every time I try, try to break the habit
I take a deep breath and I remember that

This ain't then and he's not him
Remind myself I can be myself again
Waking up to someone new
Thanking God that it's you, 'cause
This ain't then and he's not him

He'd always call me names, not the ones I wanted to hear
Now it's only "baby," "honey," whispered in my ear
He'd always put me down when I was going up
He always wanted more, but more was never enough

Every time I try, try to break the madness
I take a deep breath and I remember that

This ain't then and he's not him
Remind myself I can be myself again
Waking up to someone new
Thanking God that it's you, 'cause
This ain't then and he's not him

Guess it took going through him to get to you
It was worth it all, what he put me through

This ain't then and he's not him
Thank God

This ain't then and he's not him
Remind myself I can be myself again
Waking up to someone new
Thanking God that it's you, 'cause
This ain't then and he's not him

This ain't then and he's not him
Remind myself I can be myself again
Waking up to someone new
Thanking God that it's you, 'cause
This ain't then and he's not him

No, this ain't then and he's not him
