Verse 1 (soft, breath‑tight) Hands shake on the coffee cup, Eyes down ’cause I can’t look up. Every word feels like too much, Every breath feels never enough. There’s a laugh I practice in the mirror So you won’t feel the static in my head. I say, “I’m fine… just tired,” But I’m terrified of what I haven’t said. Chorus (soft inhale) I just wanna be loved, Wanna be loved… Even when I’m tangled and undone. Tell me I’m enough, Enough to be loved. When I can’t believe it, Can you hold that for us? I just wanna be loved — Enough to be loved. Verse 2 I scroll through the life I’ve staged, Pretty pictures that hide the ache. All my smiles are practiced poses, Little lies in perfect focus. Everyone shining while I break inside, Holding a breath I can’t confide. If the truth slipped out between the seams, Would you stay and see the girl beneath? Bridge If I fall apart… will you stay near? If I tell the truth, will you still be here? I’m so tired of being brave alone — Could your heart feel like home? Final Chorus I just wanna be loved, Wanna be loved… Even when I’m tangled and undone. Tell me I’m enough, Enough to be loved. When I can’t believe it, Can you hold that for us? I just wanna be loved — Enough to be loved. (fade into breath)
