CHIARA DUBEY – How To Save Myself
How To Save Myself is the tale of a toxic place I've been, where I loved beyond my limits and gave all I had to offer to someone who didn’t see me, sacrificing self-worth for a grain of affection and approval, ending up drained of my light. How To Save Myself is the first single of my upcoming album, CHANDANI, my (secret) middle name.

LYRICS
Let me lie here
On the bottom of my mind
Where I can heal all that is left of me
My lungs are tired
And I feel the cold soaked in bones
I guess I've given you all that I could give
And I am cursed
By the sweetest kind of madness
I wish I knew how to save myself
So I cut myself open so deep
You could bathe your hands
Into my naked soul
Drink till you've drained it all
All that I've asked was for you to see me
In the name of love, I've been the offering
Bleeding dry till there was nothing left for me
Nothing to shield me, oh
If only I could choose myself over you
Let me rest here in the corner of my world
Where I can heal all that is left of me
My legs are sore from the thousand miles I walked for you
I guess I was loving you more than I could bear
Feed me your crumbs
And I'll pour you out my own heart
I wish I knew how to save myself
And I am cursed
By the sweetest kind of madness
I wish I knew how to save myself
So I cut myself open so deep
You could bathe your hands
Into my naked soul
Drink till you've drained it all
All that I've asked was for you to see me
In the name of love, I've been the offering
Bleeding dry till there was nothing left for me
Nothing to shield me, oh
If only I could choose myself over you
In the name of love, I've been the offering
Bleeding dry till there was nothing left for me
Nothing to shield me, oh
If only I could choose myself over you
