TELL ME ANYTHING

**Haven't felt like myself since you swore you don't want me and ran the other way when I wanted a hundred But if you did the math... I only needed half; I thought we were a 50-50 love affair I lost myself somewhere in our lie Maybe I needed time to myself Told myself not to think about you Agreed with myself Told myself it's for the better I found myself I'm better by myself Told myself you won't fuck with my head again I blamed myself Forgave myself Lied to myself I can't help myself Last night, again it felt like I'm in love by myself Deathly quiet I could hear my heart breaking I had a long talk with myself about you Myself don't always think like I do I told myself I would be objective with my views And as open-minded as my pride would allow because I'm desperate to know if you've fought off my love I'm real with myself I love myself I can't do you if I don't know myself first I stopped looking for myself a long time ago when I could hear myself think I'm invested in myself Raising a child by myself I can do bad by myself. But I won't And can't nobody push me to tear myself down I hadn't felt like myself since you swore you don't want me I've seen it myself Played myself Told myself not to think about you Disagreed with myself Couldn't convince myself I had a long talk with myself about you Myself don't always think like I do I told myself I would be objective with my views and as open-minded as my pride would allow because I'm desperate to know if you've fought off my love Cuddled up against me but the elephant in the room is a very real thing I won't just let myself accept it I respect myself Gotta give myself more credit than that It was already crowded on this one way I won't forget I'm in love by myself I've embarrassed myself Felt sorry for myself I've hated myself for being too weak to stand without you I lost myself somewhere in our lie I haven't felt like myself since you swore you don't want me It's deathly quiet I could hear my heart breaking but can't nobody push me to tear myself down I can do bad by myself. But I won't I don't You ran the other way when I wanted a hundred but if you did the math... I only needed half; I thought we were a 50-50 love affair Tell me anything...**
