[Verse 1]
Hold me up to the brightest light
Where you've made me all but blind
And your scheming fingertips
Dance across my shoulder blades
This evening's got me feeling
Sad and I'm sickened to my stomach
Your perfect arms are more like ropes around my waistline

[Chorus]
I only wanted to be loved by you
I only wanted to be loved by you
I'm sad and sick of guessing
For the moment when our lips meet, melting
I only wanted to be loved by you

[Verse 2]
Call me out to the darkest night
Where you've left me small and shy
Your fleeting blasé kiss
Turns me into what I hate
I'm keeping what you're stealing
Sad and I'm sickened into my stomach
And you're sunken eyes deny
Every shard that you gave
I'd hoped you'd say
[Chorus]
I only wanted to be loved by you
I only wanted to be loved by you
I'm sad and sick of guessing
For the moment when our lips meet, melting
I only wanted to be loved by you

[Bridge]
Someone's been sparing out lies, trying not to show their eyes
Sketching with the ghost, our voices collide
Someone's been sharing out lies, trying not to sacrifice
Sketching with the ghost, there's not much left inside

[Chorus]
I only wanted to be loved by you
I only wanted to be loved by you
I'm sad and sick of guessing
For the moment when our lips meet, melting
I only wanted to be loved by you

[Outro]
So me and your eyelids, poured out naked onto the floor
So me and your eyelids, poured out naked onto the floor
