I think the hardest person to love is yourself
I mean –
You carry your flaws like burdens
And you feel them on your skin
The words you shouldn't have said
Still echo in your head

And you put them to sleep every night
The words you should've said
Still echo in your head
I bet you'd give yourself a chance
If you were someone else instead
