Love Myself More
I stood behind you for to
long didn't know where
else to turn feeling
trap in my own home
Thought loving you was
all I needed, but
no one loved me
Walk in your shadows
listening to every word
you say no one
listens to me
It was always you and
me all I saw was you
feeling lost and unwanted
Loved you more than
anything then I grew
up, she's not here
anymore, feeling secure with
myself no longer scared
I can say I
love you, but I
love myself more.
