More Than I Love Myself

Back when you were so cruel
And I was a fool
Like a grave growing daisies
You were so sweet and crazy
Back when I was so ugly
That you couldn't love me
And the loneliness nearly killed you

How can I live with myself
When I need you more?
I need your body
More than I need my own
I need to live with you
More than I need a home
And if it's over, it's true
That I always loved you
More than I love myself
So it's breaking my heart
When I miss the old you
It's breaking my heart
'Cause I miss it, too
It's breaking my heart
When I miss the old you
More than I love myself

I saw you grinding your teeth
And I felt it, too
In the dreams that I'm flying
There's a reason I do
How can I be a man
Now that you're alone there?
What a painful routine we live in
How do you care for yourself
When I need you more?

I need your love
More than I need myself
I need your tenderness
More than I need to rest
And if it's over it's true
That I always love you
More than I love myself
More than I love myself
More than I love myself
