1 verse:
Look into the mirror, what do I see?
All the imperfections that define me
Thought I was a man but I'm still a boy
Everything I am still trying to avoid
Pre Chorus:
I know the golden rule
Treat another like you want to be treated too
But lately I've been hating on myself, it's true
Beat up my heart 'til it's black and blue
Chorus:
How can I love, can I love, can I love You
If I can't even love myself?
I try to hide that I don't feel worthy
But the truth it will always tell
What you carry always shows
What you bury it still grows
How can I love, can I love, can I love You
If I can't even love myself?
2 verse:
Normal conversation seems to get harder
I try to hold my tongue 'cause it's been getting sharper
I'd open up the gate but I can't find the key
Maybe I'm afraid, afraid of what You'll see
Bridge:
I need you to pray for me
Need you to stay here with me
Though I've pushed you away from me
Don't turn away from me
I need you to pray for me (Pray)
Need you to stay here with me (Stay)
Though I've pushed you away from me (Away)
Please don't You turn away
Post Bridge:
Can I love, can I love, can I love You?
Can I love, can I love You?
Can I love, can I love?
Outro:
Can I love, can I love, can I love You?
Can I love, can I love You?
Can I love, can I love, can I love You?
'Cause You love, 'cause You love me
