I'm Not Him

Don't look at me like that
I'm not the one that hurt you
Don't look at me like that
You know I won't desert you

Do you know me well enough
To trust me to begin?
Please tell me you believe in me
Look at me - I'm not him

I'm not the one that made you cry
I'm not the one that made you die
I'm not the one that made you wish
You'd never wake again

I'm not the one that broke your will
I'm not the one you want to kill
I'm not the one you'll go without
Because I am not him

I want to help you live again
I want to hear your voice
If you choose not to love me
That can only be your choice

I'll let you go, I'll let you fly
I'll let you live again
But if you go, remember this
That I was never him
