[Verse 1]
I was nowhere near ready when all it ended
So I hoped we could find a new day, cannot live without you

You gave me the chance, time and again, in vain
Now my feelings for you, every tear, every smile, paid in full
Break the chain, but no longer can I take the pain

[Chorus]
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I've waited, hated, blamed it all on you

[Verse 2]
Needed to be strong, yet I was always too weak
So I can only blame myself for this state we are in
I will take what you have for me now, if it's not too late
Did you change? I did too. Love can grow from the last grain

[Chorus]
It's hard for me to love myself right now
I’ve waited, hated, blamed it all on

You
I need you less and less
Every day feeds this moral decay
Yet I have grown to love you even more
[Bridge]
I fall back, and I turn another cheek
You mouth the words you're not ready to speak
You're scared of me now; no I never had a clue
That I'd become so much stronger than you

[Pre-Chorus]
I will take what you have, for me now, if it’s not too late

If you like, I will leave; I will not miss the last train again

[Chorus]
It’s hard for me to love myself right now
I’ve waited, hated, blamed it all on you

It’s hard for me to love your face right now
I’m waiting, hating, needing being

Me
I need you less and less
Every day leads us farther away
From that moment

It's hard for me to hate myself right now
Finally I understand me
One day we may have a new me and you
But first I need to learn to love me too
