Starving for You

[Verse 1 – Emotional, aching, intimate]

I’ve been talking to the ceiling
’Cause I’m afraid that you won’t hear me
You’re right beside me, but somehow
I’ve never felt this far before

I keep searching through the quiet
For a trace of who we were
But every room just echoes back
A version of me you’d never prefer

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – Darkness growing louder]

And the dark keeps getting louder
Every time you look away
I’m slipping through the space between
Everything you never say

⸻

[Chorus 1 – Emotional starvation]

I drank you down like water
when I felt I was starving for a
piece of you
Show me the truth
Why don’t you ever feel me?

I keep burning just to feel you breathe
But you stay just out of my reach
And still—
you don’t turn to me
Why don’t you ever feel me?

⸻

[Verse 2 – Emotional, darker, unraveling]

I’ve been learning how to swallow
Every fear I can’t explain
’Cause when I try to open up
I can’t help but look away

I keep tracing all the moments
Where you used to pull me close
Now I’m reaching out to shadows
Of a love I barely know

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – same as before (connective thread)]

And the dark keeps getting louder
Every time you look away
I’m slipping through the space between
Everything you never say

⸻

[Chorus 2 – Deeper ache, emotional truth]

I drank you down like water
when I felt I was starving for a
sign from you
Something true
Why don’t you ever choose me?

I keep burning just to feel you breathe
But you fade each time I speak
And still—
I’m the one who’s starving
Why don’t you ever choose me?

⸻

[Bridge – quiet, breaking, vulnerable]

I’m tired of screaming in the silence
Of holding on to fading light
You’re close enough to touch me
But you never really try

And I’m sinking in the spaces
Where your love is supposed to be
If I’m the one who’s breaking
Why can’t you break for me?

⸻

[Final Chorus – emotionally collapsed]

I drank you down like water
when I felt I was starving just to
feel something
Anything
Tell me why you never need me

I keep burning just to feel you breathe
But you’re slipping further out of reach
And still—
I’m drowning in the wanting
Why don’t you ever need me?
