Crave Songtext
von Ōverwhelm

I crave for certain eyes to be on me when I stand tall
But I′ll slink and slouch until I shrink enough to dampen my spirit

I crave touch
It can feel so healing
I can't find the center point of balance where I let others hold me down
Without feeling like the weight of a burden
I crave connection
But reflex and run from the sounds of genuine interest

I crave the knowing of someone′s true self
And maybe I can let someone in
I'll settle for sex because it feels adjacent to validation
I crave you like the song, stuck in my head, an ear worm burrowed


I keep drumming and humming the tune
But still can't find the true progression
I crave love
But I′m not quite sure that I deserve it
I′m uneasy
I'm not scared of rejection
I′m petrified of acceptance

I crave and crave but mostly want to be sought after

I'm valid when I′m wanted
I'm worthy as the object of your desire
I cannot accept it′s me being seen
Look past my post
I'm not the actor in the forefront
