Lose You To Love Me

The song is about a past relationship where the singer fell for promises that were not kept. They ignored signs of issues and let the relationship negatively impact them ("set fires to my forest"). To move on from the hurt, they needed to fully cut ties ("to lose you") in order to learn to love themselves again. The chorus reiterates this theme of needing to end the relationship to find self-love ("to love me").
