Love Me When I Don't

(album: The Lucky Ones - 2021)

When all my sanity's gone
The demons are strong
I put you through hell
You know me too well
And you bring me home
'Cause you always know
How to love me when I don't
When I'm too hard on myself
I don't ask for help
When I'm not okay
I push you away
But you pull me close
'Cause you always know
How to love me when I don't

I hear the voice in my head getting way too loud
I got the weight of the world tryna take me down
I'm out here walking the edge
I lost my grip on reality that gets to me
Your problems, I got 'em
No need to worry, you won't hit the bottom
So love me like you do
When I forget how to

When all my sanity's gone
The demons are strong
I put you through hell
You know me too well
And you bring me home
'Cause you always know (Always know)
How to love me when I don't
When I'm too hard on myself
I don't ask for help
When I'm not okay
I push you away
But you pull me close
'Cause you always know
How to love me when I don't

Say it when I won't
Pray when I can't hope
Throw me the last rope
Be there when I choke
Love me when I don't

You always pull back the waves when they're getting high
Know how to soften the light 'cause it hurts my eyes
I can lose sight of myself
You show me how to get back again to who I am
Your problems, I'll stop 'em
No need to worry, they'll all be forgotten
So love me like you do (Love me like you do)
If I don't know how to

When all my sanity's gone
The demons are strong
I put you through hell
You know me too well
And you bring me home
'Cause you always know
How to love me when I don't
When I'm too hard on myself
I don't ask for help
When I'm not okay
I push you away
But you pull me close
'Cause you always know
How to love me when I don't

Say it when I won't
Pray when I can't hope (Pray when I can't hope)
Throw me the last rope
Be there when I choke
Love me when I don't

No, oh
When I don't
Love me when I don't
Love me when I don't

When I'm too hard on myself
I don't ask for help
When I'm not okay
I push you away
But you pull me close
'Cause you always know
How to love me when I don't
