Love Me Better

WRITTEN: 01/26/23

Genre: Pop

1ST VERSE:

it's bittersweet; you and me

i used to yearn your saving

and became an empty void

but i've quit this faded daydream

i can make me happy

i'm done drowning

in your aqua fall stream

i thought you loved me

my logic disagrees

PRE-CHORUS (1):

you once made me happy

you once saved me

but now, you're not around

CHORUS (1):

so i'm gonna make me happy

i'm gonna save me

yeah, i can love me better

i can love me better than you did

2ND VERSE:

i can love me better than you can

cause only i understand my self-worth

i didn't want to let go

but it's time you know

loving like this is no good

so go ahead and ghost

but i live in present times

not your afterlife

PRE-CHORUS (2):

you were my everything

your reputation proceeded me

and then i watched you leave

CHORUS (2):

so i'm gonna make me happy

i'm gonna save me

yeah, i can love me better

i can love me better than you did

its time i focus on reality

it pains me, that we weren't meant to be

but being mentally healthy

is my new priority

so it's time i love me better

BRIDGE:

and when i think of you

i'll ask myself truth

cause that's something

i didn't get from you

" why do i miss you? "

" what can you give me

that no one else can "

maybe you didn't mean it

maybe it's bullshit

but you tore me, deeply

it's about time that i unleash

moving on and loving me

PRE-CHORUS (1):

you once made me happy

you once saved me

but now, you're not around

so i'm saving me now

CHORUS (2):

so i'm gonna make me happy

i'm gonna save me

yeah, i can love me better

i can love me better than you did

its time i focus on reality

it pains me, that we weren't meant to be

but being mentally healthy

is my new priority

so it's time i love me better

OUTRO:

don't think i was gonna wait forever

i'm gonna love me better

i'm gonna love me better

i'm gonna love me better
