Love, Myself
Trying to figure out where I've been the last 20 years
Hating a man, a man who was never there
Looking in mirrors, then looking away
Hating myself for not being okay
I tried to cut him off, tried to cut myself
I hated so long, tried to be someone else
Kept turning around corners, always running away
Never looking back, never being okay
Oh I've tried
Oh I've tried
To love myself
Love myself
All of this anger
I'm someone else
Love, love myself
Please love myself
I'm begging and pleading
With someone else
I've built up these walls, I put there myself
Never needing one's love, never needing one's help
I'm turning these pages and finding my truth
I'm no longer someone that I can't run to
I'm not destroying myself or anyone else
I crushed all the hate I had for myself
Facing down my demons, beating the odds
I'm gonna be better, I'll be okay
Oh I tried
Oh I tried
To love myself
Love myself
All of my effort
I'm someone else
Love myself
Please, love myself
No more pleading
For someone else
Oh I've tried
Oh I've tried
To love myself
Love myself
All of this anger
I'm someone else
Love, love myself
Please love myself
I'm begging and pleading
With someone else
Love, Myself
