Lose You to Love Me
You promised me the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it
Set fires to my forest
And you let it burn
Sang off-key in my chorus
Cause it wasn't yours

I saw the signs that I ignored it
Rose-colors glasses all distorted
Set fire to my purpose
And I let it burn
You got off on the hurtin
When it wasn't yours, yeah

We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dance it was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me

To love, yeah
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me
To love, yеah
To love, yeah
I needed to losе you to love me
I gave all and they all know it
Then they tore me down and now it's showing
In two months, you replaced us
Like it was easy
Made me think I deserved it
In the thick of healing, yeah

We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dance it was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me

To love, yeah
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me
To love, yeah
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me

You promised me the world and I fell for it
I put you first and I adored it
Set fires to my forest
And you let it burn
Sang off-key in my chorus

To love love, yeah
To love love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me
To love, yeah
To love, yeah
And now the chapter is closed and done
To love love, yeah
To love love, yeah
And now it's goodbye, it's goodbye for us

To love love, yeah
And now it's goodbye for both of us
