To Be Loved

I'm sorry to my sister, think about you every day Do you ever cry when you see the new family that I've made? Had to go, you know I had to go, I had to leave and get away Oh, and I'm sorry to my brother, tried to help you on your way But I could've been there more for you, I was broken and afraid And oh, you know I had to go, I had to leave and get away And to the guy that hit me, I'm so sorry that I stayed But I wanted to be loved, but to me that love was pain I let you break me down, so I could build me up again And again, and again, and again I'm so sorry to myself, I could have loved you more and more I just wanted to bе loved, but I could only see my flaws But I am grateful, oh, I am grateful for how wе handled it all Oh, the choices that I made, I had to make them, they were mine I was so young I never thought about me leavin' you behind How that would've made you feel? Do you think about me still? I hope you will All my old friends all probably hate me while their mothers praise me online Does it make you sad, we haven't been in touch for all this time? The little moments that we had, all the dreams you left behind while I got mine I think about it all the time I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved And what's the point of all of this if I go and lose my inner child? I just wanna make her proud, and just wanna make her smile But I've been fightin' all the days, and I've been losin' all the nights But I will survive I will not sit around just feeling sorry for myself 'Cause I got so much more to give than just a vinyl on a shelf And if I was going to end it all, I would've done it by now, I would've done it by now Oh, and go and say it all because the damage has been done You better say it from your chest because my best is yet to come And I will fight for every moment till I say I'm done I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (Ooh) I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (Wanna be loved) I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (I just wanna be loved) I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (Oh) I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (I just wanna be) I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (I just wanna be) And honestly I've been scared to do this on my own And now I'm lost more than I was before So I'm waiting for anyone who cares Does anybody care anymore, anymore? (Does anybody care? Does anybody care?) Mm, ooh (Does anybody care? Does anybody care? Does anybody care?) Now I'm lost, I'm lost, I am
