luv starved (love sick) lyrics
by GAYLE
[Verse 1]
I was never shown how to love
So I did my best to guess
Everythin' a man ever wants
A tiny girl in a dress
A trophy for his friends
That I didn't even like, so
Tried to learn from mistakes
I haven't made one in months
But it's gettin' harder to take pushing away everyone
You just had to show up
(And yeah, I'm not mad about it)
[Pre-Chorus]
Swear to God, I'ma change, but I'm agnostic
All the loneliness is gettin' so exhaustin'
Sick to my stomach, yeah, I'm feelin' kinda nauseous
And I can't tell if it's you
[Chorus]
I'm so love-starved
Knowin' if I'm ready to trust you is goddamn hard
You're pickin' at skin and bones
I feel my lips, they'rе turning blue
Are you great or somеthing new?
I'm so love-starved
(Are you actually my type or do I just need a bite?)
[Verse 2]
Is it the fact that you're there, do I actually care?
The potential of the latter's got me pullin' my hair out
I'm a skeleton of the love I once had
Yeah, it was so bad, but you're nothin' like that, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Swear to God, I'ma change, but I'm agnostic (Ah)
All the loneliness is gettin' so exhaustin' (Ah)
Sick to my stomach, yeah, I'm feelin' kinda nauseous (Ah)
And I can't tell if it's you, 'cause
[Chorus]
I'm so love-starved
Knowin' if I'm ready to trust you is goddamn hard
You're pickin' at skin and bones
I feel my lips, they're turning blue
Are you great or something new?
I'm so
[Bridge]
(Oh-oh) I'm so love-starved
Sometimes it gets so damn hard
Also, my skin and bones
I'm so scared to end up alone
Talk me off a cliff and go ahead and push right off of it
I'm so scared, I'm, I'm, I'm aware, yeah
I'm, I'm, I'm on fire, I'm a f*cking lie
I'm a maniac, I always laugh when I'm frustrated, uneducated, unmotivated
I want love that wants me back
But, I don't think that I know how to actually have it
Something good staring back at me
Swear everyone always f*cking leaves when look you in the eyes
Only wanna to tell you lies, you look surprised
I hate my mind 'cause I'm so
[Outro]
Love-starved
I'm so, oh, love-starved
