"I Love You, But" lyrics

"I Love You, But"

I wanna be alone lately
Is talking to myself crazy?
They say it's bad for my mental health
I said, "I love you, but I love myself"
Yeah, everybody is so deceiving
Just gotta focus on my own breathing
I'm not perfect, but I'm getting well
Yeah, I love you, but I love myself

More than I ever thought I could
I'm a working progress, but that progress lookin' good
I know, wish I knew it all along
That if you want a glow
You gotta do it on your own

Let's backtrack to back when we weren't just comparing
So damn distracted by everyone caring
So take my plans and postpone
'Cause I stay getting better when I'm in my own zone

I wanna be alone lately
Is talking to myself crazy?
They say it's bad for my mental health
I said, "I love you, but I love myself"
Yeah, everybody is so deceiving
Just gotta focus on my own breathing
I'm not perfect, but I'm getting well
Yeah, I love you, but I love myself

Love you, but I love myself
Doing better, can't you tell?
Trying to be consistent now
On a different system now
Oh shit, I hate when that happens
One second I'm better, then I'm falling back and

Let's backtrack to back when we weren't just comparing
So damn distracted by everyone caring
So take my plans and postpone
'Cause I stay getting better when I'm in my own zone

I wanna be alone lately
Is talking to myself crazy? (Hey)
They say it's bad for my mental health (My health)
I said, "I love you, but I love myself"
Yeah, everybody is so deceiving
Just gotta focus on my own breathing
I'm not perfect, but I'm getting well
Yeah, I love you, but I love myself

You know I love you, but I
You know I love you, but I
You know I love you, but I

I wanna be alone lately (Alone lately)
Is talking to myself crazy? (Talking to myself crazy)
They say it's bad for my mental health
I said, "I love you, but I love myself" (Hey)
Yeah, everybody is so deceiving
Just gotta focus on my own breathing (Gotta focus on my own breathing)
I'm not perfect, but I'm getting well
Yeah, I love you, but I love myself

You know I love you, but I
You know I love you, but I
You know I love you, but I
Yeah, I love you, but I love myself
