[Verse 1:]
I was drowning in the silence
Lost inside my mind
Wearing every scar like armor
Pretending I was fine
Then you found me in the darkness
Reached out your hand to mine
Whispered words I never knew I needed
"You gotta love yourself this time"
[Chorus:]
You told me to love myself
When I forgot how to believe
You showed me the light I couldn't see
Now I'm finding strength inside of me
I'm learning to love myself
Step by step, breath by breath
Your words are the reason I began
To see who I am
[Verse 2:]
Now I'm standing in the mirror
And I see a different face
Not just the cracks and all the failures
But a heart that's found its place
Every broken piece you mended
With the kindness in your eyes
I'm learning how to love the girl
I kept hidden deep inside
[Chorus:]
You told me to love myself
When I forgot how to believe
You showed me the light I couldn't see
Now I'm finding strength inside of me
I'm learning to love myself
Step by step, breath by breath
Your words are the reason I began
To see who I am
[Bridge:]
It’s not easy, some days I fall
But I hear your voice through it all
Saying “You are more than all your scars”
And now I know... you were right from the start
[Final Chorus (softer first, then stronger):]
You told me to love myself
When I forgot how to believe
You showed me the light I couldn't see
Now I'm finding strength inside of me
I'm learning to love myself
Step by step, breath by breath
Your words are the reason I began
To see who I am
[Outro:]
I'm learning to love myself...
Because you believed in me.
