Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 He said he wasn’t like them — looked me dead in the eye. Said he was different, said he’d never lie. No shouting, no fists, just a hand on my waist. I let my guard down. Yeah — that was my mistake. He knew what to say, knew when to touch, knew how to feel safe without doing much. I thought calm meant real. I thought quiet meant clean. Didn’t know silence could be that mean. Chorus He said he wasn’t like them — but he lied like the rest. Never hit me, just lived in my head. He said he wasn’t like them — played it cool, played it smart. Cheated in secret, rearranged my heart. Yeah he said he wasn’t like them — but here I am again. Different kind of damage. Same kind of man. Verse 2 I’ve survived worse, I’ve walked through hell. I know what abuse feels like, I know that smell. But this was soft. This was slow. This was “baby trust me” mixed with don’t ask though. He watched me open, he learned my cracks. Turned my past trauma into a welcome mat. Now I replay everything — his smile, his tone, how he’d hold me close while living unknown. Chorus He said he wasn’t like them — but he lied like the rest. Never hit me, just lived in my chest. He said he wasn’t like them — kept it sweet, kept it tight. Gaslit gently, cheated polite. Yeah he said he wasn’t like them — but I see it now. You don’t need fists to tear someone down. Bridge I feel stupid. Then I feel mad. Then I remember — this was planned. You studied me. You mapped my pain. You didn’t lose control — you ran the game. Now the world knows your name. But I’m the one healing. You get exposure. I get feelings. Chorus He said he wasn’t like them — but he was worse in disguise. They showed their damage. You hid behind eyes. He said he wasn’t like them — but you hollowed me out. Didn’t raise your voice, just planted doubt. Yeah he said he wasn’t like them — guess that’s what they all say. Different kind of toxic. Same damn play. Outro He said he wasn’t like them. That should’ve been the warning.
