[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I try, try to break the habit
I take a deep breath and I remember that

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I try, try to break the madness
I take a deep breath and I remember that

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
No, this ain't then
And he's not him
