I don’t really have the time today | To love myself more than I hate
The person I am | Or who’ve I become
I just want to feel | Unconditionally loved
Why do we play with each others’ emotions? | The salt from our tears can fill-up the ocean
Why was I given the voice in my head | That talks with an accent I don’t always understand
I’ve been trying real hard, the best that I can | To push myself forward while looking ahead
God, I just wish I could like me for all that I am | Instead of not liking me for all I am not
My mind is always thinking | So much more than I ever want
Please remember you can find me | In my multiple streams of thought
Do you think you would still love me | If I showed you who I am?
You know that I can never be as good as | The one you hold inside your head
I wish that it was me, babe | Oh, I absolutely do
But I am looking for the kinda love | That wants me to love beyond only you
So I show you my broken pieces | Maybe together we can make some sense
All I’ve needed from you is your time | But time tells me you had none to give
I don’t know how I made it through | I really just don’t know
I wish that I could say it was you | But that now just wouldn’t be true
Who was there in my darkest of hours? | Who is it who came to rescue me?
As I am all alone and dying | It was only me who was able to save me
