The You Before Him

By Blackwood
[intro]
Will you keep his name?

[verse]
It’s two in the morning,
You’re still scrolling his posts.
Torturing yourself,
with pictures of her.

[verse]
Divorce papers on the table,
Next to the dusty shelf…
Memories telling the story,
Of a life already gone.

[pre-chorus]
Why do we keep holding the past…
When he’s already moved on.

[chorus]
After all the cheating, all the lies
When we know love’s already gone.
Are you still keeping his name?
After he’s packed his bags,
Telling you he’s leaving for her...
When the tears are finally past.

[post-chorus]
There was a you, Before him.
She’s worth you finding again

[verse]
When all that’s left are Papers,
For you to sign.
Stop torturing yourself with the why.
Move past the end,
to the you before him.

[verse]
Find the girl you left behind
Before you shared his name.
The mirror still remembers her,
The girl before he caused all the pain...

[pre-chorus]
Why do we keep holding the past…
When he’s already moved on.

[chorus]
After all the cheating, all the lies
When we know love’s already gone.
Are you still keeping his name?
After he’s packed his bags,
Telling you he’s leaving for her...
When the tears are finally past.

[post-chorus]
There was a you before him.
She's still there.
She's worth finding again.

[bridge]
I know you can’t see it,
Lost in the shadow of him…
You're more than the end,
More than the heartbreak…
I still remember you then.
The one who laughed too loud.
The one that never backed down.
The one who lived without doubt
She’s better than the story of him.

[pre-chorus]
Why do we keep holding the past…
When he’s already moved on.

[chorus]
After all the cheating, all the lies
When we know love’s already gone.
Are you still keeping his name?
After he’s packed his bags,
Telling you he’s leaving for her.
When the tears are finally past…

[outro]
There was a you, Before him.
She’s still there. I promise…
She’s worth finding again
She’s worth finding again
