Song:
I didn't love myself,
but I thought I did
I threw myself at people,
hopeful they'd catch me before I'd fall
As I grew up,
I learned what I did was selfish
People aren't a cure to your problems,
only you are
People are objects who can make them better or worse,
no matter how much you love them
It's not their responsibility to catch you,
because you shouldn't have thrown yourself at them in the first place
I'd be lying if I said I hadn't tried,
the idea of being caught and nurtured is sweet
Now my advice to you,
don't throw yourself to people
Instead gently place your head on their shoulder,
the real ones will lay their head on yours
Give yourself to those few,
give heavily
If they drop your head,
at least it wasn't all of you
To hate is easy,
To love is hard
Which is why I say please for the love of god,
invest in the right ones
If you feel like you're competing for a friend,
then you're not competing at all
See a real friend wouldn't make you feel envy,
only an enemy would
Friends cheer you on in a competition,
then laugh about it in a few years
They'll love you even if you hate yourself,
a true friends knows your wins aren't their losses
Find good friends my dear,
they're hard to come by
