Self/Less

Brutally honest, you hate that I had to leave

I didn't want this

How could I do this for me?

You don't understand it

I know you can feel what this means

It's weighing heavy

I know that I couldn't lie to you, not even if I tried

You said it over, said, "Are you leaving, leaving me behind?"

Would it be selfish? I'm doing this for myself

I wanna be selfless, but I love myself less

If you could forget me, I'd never forgive myself for being so damn selfish

Know that it kills me, so I gotta leave

But I'm feeling selfless, need an identity

Forgive, don't forget me

'Cause I won't forgive myself for being so damn selfish

So damn selfish

Tell me you're proud

Tell me you're proud, not ashamed

Ease all my doubts

Tell me it's not a mistake that I'll never lose you

You made me who I am today

Promise that we'll stay the same

I couldn't lie to you, not even if I tried

You said it over, said, "Are you leaving, leaving me behind?"

Would it be selfish? I'm doing this for myself

I wanna be selfless, but I love myself less

If you could forget me, I'd never forgive myself for being so damn selfish

Know that it kills me, so I gotta leave

But I'm feeling selfless, need an identity

Forgive, don't forget me

'Cause I won't' forgive myself for being so damn selfish

So damn selfish
