How can I love you
I can't love myself
My pride is long gone
It was knocked off the shelf
I'm trying so hard
To love you, I am
It's so very hard
When I'm ugly, not glam
I hate myself
I'm so insecure
My heart is locked
I can't open the door
I've been used abused
For a very long time
It hurts so deep
That I'll never be fine
I'm struggling so hard
To open my heart
I'm so very scared
It'll get torn apart
How can I love you
When I don't love me
This hurt runs so deep
That I'll never be free
I'm gonna try to love you
But please do take care
Of this wounded heart
That I'm so scared to share
Go gentle, go steady
I really am trying
To love you so much
But my heart just keeps dying
I think we should go
Our separate ways
Cause my heart just can't take it
And I live in a daze
I am so sorry
I cannot live you
My heart is frightened
And I am too
So go on your way
Just leave me alone
I'll sit here and die
And hope God takes me home
How can I love you
That just cannot be
My life is a mess
And I'll never be free
I don't know which way
My life is heading
So goodbye for now
And my future I'm dreading
