Lose You To Love You

You promised the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it
Set fires to my forest
And you let it burn
Sang off-key in my chorus
'Cause it wasn't yours

I saw the signs and I ignored it
Rose-colored glasses all distorted
Set fire to my purpose
You got off on the hurting
When it wasn't yours

We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah

To love, love
To love, love
To love
I needed to lose you to love me
To love, love
To love, love
To love
I needed to lose you to love me

I gave my all and they all know it
Then you tore me down and now it's showing
In two months, you replaced us
Like it was easy
Made me think I deserved it
In the thick of healing, yeah

We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah

To love, love
To love, love
To love
I needed to lose you to love me
To love, love
To love, love
To love
I needed to lose you to love me

You promised the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it
Set fires to my forest
Sang off-key in my chorus
