about

Happy Valentine's Day darlings...my valentine to you, a brand-new song about self-love and self-respect. <3 *Colorful language warning for young listeners.* Enjoy!

lyrics

I used to think that I deserved it
every reminder I’m imperfect
you held your love out like a pardon
I had to prove that I was worth it

cause when you’re praying to a jealous god
shame is the gospel you believe in
I held my love out like a penance
the only way you could receive it

I gave my all, grew smaller and smaller in your eyes
took a lot of pain but then I realized

honey I don’t need you to love me
cause I love me more
I love me more
not gonna put your pain above me
not like before
cause I love me more

It took more courage than I realized
to walk away from all the bullshit
life was hazy in your gaslight
I didn't recognize myself in it

but now I see things in a new light
I’m slowly getting back my old glow
and I’m not fighting for your good side
got back my crown, don’t need your halo

honey I don’t need you to love me
cause I love me more
I love me more
not gonna put your pain above me
not like before
cause I love me more

Love isn’t love if it’s not free
Can’t love you at the price of me
I gave you all that I could give
not gonna die for you to live
some lies you live until they’re true
lied to myself to live for you
but I’ve got so much more to give
not gonna die for you to live

I don’t need you to love me
cause I love me more
I love me more
not gonna put your pain above me
not like before
cause I love me more

more than all the long nights
more than all the lies
more than all the crocodile tears you cried
more than all the shame between me and the door
yeah I really loved you but I love me more
more than all the fun we had when we were friends
more than all the promises of never again
more than all the flowers you left at my door
babe I really loved you but I love me more
more than all the wounds I couldn't help you heal
more than all the feelings you told me to feel
more than all the times I swore that it was real
but baby I can't deal...
