"Find Less" lyrics

"Find Less"

Maybe it was naive, letting myself believe
I was your long lost missing piece

You told me to be myself when you knew full well
You wanted something else from me

But your love wasn't big enough
Not for the both of us

So I hope you find less
That's what you wanted
You asked for my best
And darling, you got it
I hope you find less

I've always been a lot, and I won't pretend I'm not
I thought that you liked that about me

But you taught me to keep it in, the parts of me that offend
While you take up space with so much ease

And I learned to make myself smaller
Just so you might look a little bit taller

I hope you find less
Cause that's what you wanted
You asked for my best
And darling, you got it

You saw what I was and said it's too much
So I hope you find less
Hope you find less...

And I wish I was bigger than this
Bigger than you, bigger than
All the walls that you've built around us
But I'll just wish you well
Cause I'm big enough
To hope you find less
Less
Less...

I hope you find less
Cause that's what you wanted
You asked for my best
And darling, you got it
You took all that I was to build yourself up
You let me fall in love and you said it's too much
So I hope you find less
