NO LONGER HIM

Lyrics

VERSE 1 I still remember the way you smiled The man who could make the darkest days worthwhile You’d look at me, I’d know just what you meant Now I don’t know where the real you went Your eyes are open, but you’re somewhere else A stranger living inside yourself I reach for you, but you turn away And I miss the man you were yesterday PRE-CHORUS I keep searching for a trace Of the man I knew behind your face But every time I look into your eyes It’s like watching someone else inside CHORUS You’re still here, but you’re no longer him I see your face, but I can’t find what’s within I miss the man who used to hold me close The one I loved, the one I miss the most And it kills me knowing what you’ve become Watching the damage, watching what’s been done You’re standing here, but somehow he’s gone I’m still holding on to someone who’s no longer him VERSE 2 The smallest things don’t feel the same I barely recognise the sound of your name The laughter’s gone, the warmth has disappeared And I don’t know the man who’s standing here I wonder if you ever see it too The distance growing between me and you Or are you lost somewhere inside your mind Searching for a place you cannot find PRE-CHORUS I keep searching for a trace Of the man I knew behind your face But every time I look into your eyes It’s like watching someone else inside CHORUS You’re still here, but you’re no longer him I see your face, but I can’t find what’s within I miss the man who used to hold me close The one I loved, the one I miss the most And it kills me knowing what you’ve become Watching the damage, watching what’s been done You’re standing here, but somehow he’s gone I’m still holding on to someone who’s no longer him BRIDGE I don’t know how to grieve someone alive Or how to keep loving what’s left inside I can’t reach you, I can’t pull you through And God, I miss the man I once knew FINAL CHORUS You’re still here, but you’re no longer him I see your face, but I can’t find what’s within I miss the man who used to hold me close The one I loved, the one I miss the most And if there’s still a part of you in there I hope someday you find your way back here You’re standing here, but somehow he’s gone I’m still missing someone who’s no longer him OUTRO I miss you… Even when you’re right here.
