[Verse 1] You hit my line like a bad old habit Same old smile, same old act, still dramatic Said you changed, but I know that pattern You only miss me when your world start crashin' [Pre-Chorus] I heard the talk, I read the signs You want my door, you want my time But I done learned what peace can be And baby, that don't look like me [Chorus] I choose me, I choose me That’s the only love I need I choose me, I choose me You don’t get to drain me clean (choose me) I’m done with the ache (choose me) I won’t break that way I choose me, I choose me And I’m finally free [Verse 2] You said “remember when” like that could fix us Like one sweet memory could make me trust you But my heart got tired of the same excuses I’m not your back-up plan when your new life bruises [Pre-Chorus] I heard the talk, I read the signs You want my door, you want my time But I done learned what peace can be And baby, that don't look like me [Chorus] I choose me, I choose me That’s the only love I need I choose me, I choose me You don’t get to drain me clean (choose me) I’m done with the ache (choose me) I won’t break that way I choose me, I choose me And I’m finally free [Bridge] I kept the gifts, I kept the doubt I kept the nights you wore me out Now I’m the one I call by name I’m not going back to feeling shame [Final Chorus] I choose me, I choose me That’s the only love I need I choose me, I choose me You don’t get to drain me clean (choose me) I’m done with the ache (choose me) I won’t break that way I choose me, I choose me And I’m finally free
