Sometimes bitter
Sometimes bruised
Secretly always confused
I'd rather be told than choose
Is that okay?
I don’t eat to get control
And I don’t easily let go
I spin down a rabbit hole
Every couple days
You already know that
But you don’t care
And even though I know you're scared
You just hold me
Until i can breathe again
I wish that i could love myself
Something like the way you love me
I wish that i could love myself
Something like the way you love me
Saturdays without a plan
Casually reach for your hand
Things I didn’t understand
Until you showed me
That I'm patient
And I'm kind
And I am not defined
By my exes and my crosses and the stories in my mind
I wish that i could love myself
something like the way you love me
(I wish I could love me like you love me)
I wish that I could love myself
something like the way you love me
I wish that I could love myself
something like the way you love me
I wish that I could love myself
something like the way you love me
