[Verse 1] I learn the laugh that lands just right I turn my doubt into delight You look my way; I come alive Then chase that look to keep it mine [Pre-Chorus] If every face says, “Stay a while,” I can forget the ache awhile But when the praise slips out of reach I’m back to asking what I mean [Chorus] Love me, love me—say it again I keep collecting hearts like evidence Tell me I’m wanted, tell me I’m enough I’m tired of dressing fear up as love [Verse 2] I’m quick with charm, I’m quick to bend I make a promise just to fit in A hundred eyes can fill the day Still, one small silence takes it away [Bridge] What if I stop auditioning here? What if my worth survives the mirror? [Final Chorus] Love me, love me—say it again I don’t want to beg for evidence I want to be wanted, and want myself too Not just the version that pleases you [Outro] Not just the version that pleases you
