I’m not him 2

Sanoitukset

Verse 1 I know you’ve heard forever From people who walked away I know you’ve given everything Just to watch somebody change You’ve had people betray you Someone lied beyond belief He even faked his own death And left you carrying the grief So I understand the walls you built I understand why they’re there But I can’t spend forever proving I’m not the one who put them there Pre-Chorus If I came here just to hurt you I could’ve done that long ago I wouldn’t have given you my everything Just to turn around and let you go Chorus Baby, I’m not him I won’t love you with a lie I’m not here to break your heart Then disappear from your life I want the best for you Even when you’re doubting me But there’s no us without trust And love needs room to breathe You either want this life with me Or somewhere inside you don’t But I’m still here, I’m still trying I’m still holding onto hope Just don’t make me pay forever For the things that he once did I know he left some big shoes behind— But I’m not him. Verse 2 I used to think those shoes were heavy Like I had something to prove Like every day I had to show you I could love you better than he could But how do I compete with someone Who wasn’t honest from the start? He gave you reasons not to trust him I gave you everything in my heart And lately I can feel us changing There’s a distance growing too The more you doubt the love I give you The more I start to pull back too Not because I stopped loving you Not because I want somebody new I’m just scared that if you keep expecting me to hurt you One day there’ll be nothing I can do Pre-Chorus Everybody has a limit And I never want to find mine I’d rather turn around and save us Before we cross that final line Chorus Baby, I’m not him I won’t love you with a lie I’m not here to break your heart Then disappear from your life I want the best for you After all you’ve been put through But there’s no us without trust No matter how much I love you You either want this life with me Or somewhere inside you don’t But I’m still here, I’m still trying I’m still holding onto hope Just don’t make me pay forever For the things that he once did I know he left some big shoes behind— But I’m not him. Bridge Skye, look at everything I’ve given Look at everything we’ve made If hurting you was what I wanted Why would I have stayed? Why would I give you all of me? Why would I fight this hard for us? Why would losing what we have Be the thing that scares me this much? I know people have betrayed you And I know those wounds run deep But I’m standing here beside you Asking you to believe in me I can’t promise we’ll never struggle I can’t promise we won’t fall But I can promise I’m not here To become another reason for your walls Final Chorus Because I’m not him And I never want to be I don’t want you scared of loving Every time you look at me I want the best for you Even if someday that’s not me But God knows while you’re still my wife I’ll fight for everything we could be There’s no us without trust There’s no marriage built on doubt And the more we stop believing The more we slowly shut love out So if you want us, baby, choose us And I’ll keep choosing you Because I’m nowhere near done trying After everything we’ve been through Outro And if our story ever ends You’ll still be a part of me You became the most important person I never knew I’d need I’ll cherish every piece of us No matter where our story goes But I’m not ready for the ending And I need you to know— If I wanted to hurt you I would’ve done it long ago I gave my all because I love you And I’m still giving all I know I’m not him, Skye I’m just asking you to see— Don’t love me like I’m who hurt you Love me like I’m me.
