Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 (soft, finger-picked guitar) I always have been ignored Misunderstood Got played, got used Got used for my body Used for my kindness Thrown away like I meant nothing Depressed, but I never said a word Just learned how to hurt in silence Pre-Chorus (build slowly) Every time I opened up my heart Someone took what they could and ran I started believing love was temporary And pain was just who I am Chorus (full acoustic strum, emotional punch) I want to be loved Not for what I give Genuine connection Someone to really live with Friendship, not convenience Used for my good heart I want to be seen Not left in the dark Verse 2 (pull back, quieter again) So I closed myself off Put walls around me Every brick was a promise I’d never let anyone drown me I told myself I’m safer alone If I expect nothing, I won’t break Pre-Chorus 2 (drums creep in lightly) But then you came in without knowing Didn’t force, didn’t pretend You just stayed when it was quiet Like you weren’t going to leave in the end Chorus (bigger this time) I want to be loved Genuine connection Friendship that don’t fade With the slightest tension Not used, not borrowed Not torn apart I want to be seen For my soul, not just my heart Bridge (strip instruments back, raw vocals) But you unknowingly break those walls Every time you say my name You let me feel like I am worth something Like I deserve to be loved It looks like you see me Like you do accept me And somehow I’m not ashamed Break / Build (instrumental rise) Final Chorus (full band, emotional rock release) I want to be loved Not just wanted at night Genuine connection Something real, something right I was lost in the darkness Thinking I’d always be scarred But you’re the light in the darkness Showing me who I really am Outro (soft again) Maybe I was never invisible Maybe I was just unseen Now I’m learning how to believe That love doesn’t have to hurt me
