Love Yourself
Love yourself they say, If you don't love yourself then no one will
But if no one loves you who is there to take the pain away for the rainy days
Love yourself they say, but how can you love yourself when the world turns its back on you
How can you love yourself when you feel so alone
Love yourself they say, but how can you love yourself when you see people better than you
When no one is there to tell you you're beautiful
Love yourself they say, but how can you love yourself when you begin to doubt yourself
Who is there to hug you and reassure you
Love yourself they say, but what is the point when I can end it all today
Pills, belts, even a knife at my disposal, it has to end right now
Tears
Doubt
Self Hatred
Does no one care for you?
Stop! Says the man on the tv
He says there's someone that cares above
Shivering you raise the volume and tune in
He speaks about love during hard times and faith in him
Maybe they're it's true what they say
In time you will love yourself because someone does love you
