If I were you for a day
I’d like to see myself your way
What’s really there in your mind
When you say I’m beautiful

If I were you for a week
Let me get into those words that you speak

As you hold me in you eyes and say I’m beautiful

No, I’m not saying I don’t trust you
I really do believe you but just not so much in myself
And I’m not seeking no one's attention
Not fishing for compliments
Just wanna hear that you’re still there

If you really love me then please take me there
Tell me that you love me, I wanna be there

*Cus I wanna love me
Baby tell me what you see when you say I’m pretty
Show me what you really mean when you press those lips down onto mine
(When you press those lips onto mine)
And if you’re on tonight
Come on over put your hands around me tight
All I need is your light to feel warm
Teach me how to love myself the way you love me

If I could choose for a day
I wouldn’t know what I’d like to change
Cus there’s just so much I have no idea how or where to start

And though I know you don’t like
When I keep asking the same things every night
I just wanna let you know I’m getting there...
So please hold on

Oh and I’ve heard
They say you can’t love someone else...
Until you love yourself but I don’t understand how that could be
Cus when I see you, all I feel is happy
The way you choose what to keep and what to let go
Makes me wanna be the same

If you really love me then please me there
I don’t really know when but I’ll be there

(*)

When my skin that’s made of thin threads
Weaved in through my flesh starts ripping at the seams...
It’s time to confess

I’ve never really my liked my lips, my eyes,
The fat around my thighs,
On my waist line
I can go on and on and on
But I don’t wanna say it again
Don’t wanna make you worry
I’d keep quiet but in my head I’m still fighting
Everyday, it’s not what people say
But simply all the hate I’d put myself on along with my make up
But I’m done
I’m tired of changing who I am...

When I look into the mirror, don’t wanna change what I see
All I want to change is what I think about me
Whatever that may be...

Cus I wanna love me
Baby tell me what you see when you say I’m pretty
Show me what you really mean when you press those lips down onto mine
(When you press those lips down onto mine)
And if you’re on tonight
Come on over put your hands around me tight
All I need is your light to feel warm
Teach me how to love myself, teach me

The way that you love me
Forget the rest of the world, let’s fall asleep
Like we’re just two little kids
Take my hand, we’ll hide away tonight
(Take my hand and hold me tight)
You know I’m not alright
So stay with me even though I tell you I’m fine
I lied... cus I still need your light to feel warm

I don’t really like myself
I don’t really love me
Teach me how to love myself
I really wanna love me...
