"Self/Less" lyrics

"Self/Less"

Brutally honest, I hate that you had to leave
I didn't want this
How could I do this for me?
You don't understand it
I know you can feel what this means
It's weighing heavy

I know that I couldn't lie to you, not even if I tried
You said it over, said I'm leaving, leaving me behind

Would it be selfish? I'm doing this for myself
I wanna be selfless, but I love myself less
If you could forget me, I'd never forgive myself for being so damn selfish
Know that it kills me, so I gotta leave
But I'm feeling selfless, need an identity
Forgive, don't forget me
'Cause I won't forgive myself for being so damn selfish
So damn selfish

Tell me you're proud
Tell me you're proud, not ashamed
Ease all my doubts
Tell me it's not a mistake that I'll never lose you
You made me who I am today
Promise that we'll stay the same

I couldn't lie to you, not even if I tried
You said it over, said I'm leaving, leaving me behind

Would it be selfish? I'm doing this for myself
I wanna be selfless, but I love myself less
If you could forget me, I'd never forgive myself for being so damn selfish
Know that it kills me, so I gotta leave
But I'm feeling selfless, need an identity
Forgive, don't forget me
'Cause I won't' forgive myself for being so damn selfish
So damn selfish
