illneas, Midtro - Loving Me When I Can't Love Myself Lyrics

At first, it was the sound of your voice and the way it seemed you were hiding something
While you were sleeping I noticed your anxious breathing
But I didn't say anything
The hardest part of loving them when they can't love themselves
Is accepting your inability to always make them happy
I know that something is bothering you but I chose to ignore it
The hardest part of loving them when they can't love themselves
Is letting them find happiness in the absence of you
I noticed that each smile seems more forced than the last
The hardest part of loving you when you can't love yourself
Is convincing you that this is not affecting me
You asked me to let you deal with it yourself
The hardest part of loving you when you can't love me
Is hiding from you that something is bothering me
While I was sleeping you noticed my anxious breathing but you didn't say anything
You know that something is wrong
But you chose to ignore it
Each of my smiles seems more forced than the last one
The hardest part of loving me when I can't love myself
Is knowing that I would do the same for you
