Pieces (feat. Alibis)

Hello sorrow you weren’t the greatest friend
I hoped I’d never have to see you again
The blade would taste so sweet against my skin
But the shame would cut deeper
Than I could imagine

I refuse to drag you down any longer
I will choose to get back Up when I'm stronger

It’s hard to love you
When I don’t love myself
How could you want me
When I'm always in pieces

These streets are haunted my breath is cold
I wasn’t what you wanted
Still you thought I’d make you whole

Can’t you see my state of mind
Isn’t your decision
I'm sick of always wasting time
Begging your forgiveness

I know I didn’t ask you your opinion
Didn’t think I needed your permission
Starved out by the lack of trust that’s given
Things would be so different if you’d listen

It’s hard to love you
When I don’t love myself
How could you want me
When I'm always in pieces

I know you wanted me to let you in
How come you never let me in
But how could I when you’d never understand
You never let me understand
I promise you’ll be better off without me

It’s hard to love you
When I don’t love myself
How could you want me
When I'm always in pieces

It’s hard to love you
When I don’t love myself
I hate myself
How could you want me
When I'm always in pieces
