To Me

[Verse 1]
I’m looking at the pictures on the wall
A version of a life I don't recognize at all
I try to find the person that I knew
Beneath the layers and the miles of "me and you"
But every time I reach for something real
It’s just the coldness of the stone is all I feel
[Pre-Chorus]
And I’ve been waiting for the tide to turn
For every lesson that I had to learn
But if I don’t move on now I’m never gonna do it
I’ve gotta fight the pain and make my way on through it
[Chorus]
I know we said forever, but it’s becoming plain to see
It’s not about the lies or who you’re trying to be
It’s not the way you speak or how you look at me
The only truth that’s left, the only thing I see ...
Is it’s not who you think you are, but who you’ve not been to me.
[Verse 2]
I used to make excuses for the quiet
I’d tell myself that I was brave enough to try it
I’d justify the distance in your eyes
By painting over all the pain with colorful lies
But this space is heavy and so is the air, as I'm 
Searching for a heart that was never even there
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, if I don’t do it now I’m never gonna do it
I’ve gotta fight the pain and make my way on through it
[Chorus]
I know we said forever, but it’s becoming plain to see
It’s not about the lies or who you’re trying to be
It’s not the way you speak or how you look at me
The only truth that’s left, the only thing I see ...
Is it’s not who you think you are, but who you’ve not been to me.
[Bridge]
You’re a good woman to the world outside
You’re a hero in the  groups where you can hide
But when the lights go down and it’s just us two
I’m starving for the soul I thought I knew
I’m done waiting for that version of you...
That isn't coming home!
[Final Chorus]
I know we said forever, but it’s becoming plain to see
It’s not about the lies or who you’re trying to be
It’s not the way you speak or how you look at me
The only truth that’s left, the only thing I see ...
Is it’s not who you think you are, but who you’ve not been to me.
[Outro]
Not who you think you are...
But who you’ve not been...
To me.
