This Isn't You Anymore
Verse 1Going down the subway
Walking in circles lost in thought
I stare all around
Trying to pick out a familiar something
That resembles just a hint
Of whatever's left of you
Pre-ChorusBut it is like you existed no more
No one and nothing resembles you
No matter how I tried
I could not get even a glimpse of what you were
I can only see what you've become
ChorusThis isn't you anymore
How could this be
When it is you standing in front of me
This isn't you anymore
You feel like a danger
And I feel like a stranger
This isn't you anymore
Verse 2All alone at home
The emptiness echoing in my heart
I'm drowning in sorrow
All lost and desolate
I pray from my knees
Trying to get back that girl I know from long ago
Pre-ChorusBut it is like you existed no more
No one and nothing resembles you
No matter how I tried
I could not get even a glimpse of what you were
I can only see what you've become
ChorusThis isn't you anymore
How could this be
When it is you standing in front of me
This isn't you anymore
You feel like a danger
And I feel like a stranger
This isn't you anymore
Verse 3Looking at our photographs
Chasing the ghosts of the past
Our love frozen in colour
Now appearing dull and grey
I want to turn back time
To the times we spent together
To when we enjoyed each other
Pre-ChorusBut it is like you existed no more
No one and nothing resembles you
No matter how I try
I cannot get even a glimpse of what you were
I can only see what you've become
ChorusThis isn't you anymore
How could this be
When it is you standing in front of me
This isn't you anymore
You feel like a danger
And I feel like a stranger
This isn't you anymore
BridgeI can't bring myself to tell you
How I really feel
'Cos you don't even know
That you've changed and what you're doing to me now
'Cos you won't understand
The damage you're causing and how hard it is to mend
I'm still looking for the girl I once loved
ChorusThis isn't you anymore
How could this be
When it is you standing in front of me
This isn't you anymore
You feel like a danger
And I feel like a stranger
This isn't you anymore
Verse 4I've resigned to my fate
That I feel weird on every date
Being unsure if you're still you
That beautiful girl I once knew
But I hate it when your changes show
Walking away is the only way I know
Trying to figure out what you've become
You're gone
This isn't you, Not anymore
