Failure, FOMO, a nagging need for appreciation, frustration, lack of influence, depression… that constant rapid fire of negative thoughts in no particular order… THAT, and a need to be loved is where this song comes from.
VS 1
There's a little bit of sadness in everyone
There's a little more madness the further you come
Swear I've got a brain that wants to see me dead, yeah
But I'm too afraid to put the gun to my head
I'ma take the pain and wait for someone to stitch me up
Chorus
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I
Oh I
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I
Oh I
VS 2
There's a little bit of anger in everyone
Oh I can feel the danger, it's boiling up
All we ever wanted was the world to see
Looking for a way to get our face on a screen
We keep marching along and wait for someone to notice us
Chorus
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I
Oh I
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I
Oh I
Oh I
Oh I
Ooooohhhh
Ooooohhhh
Ooooohhhh
Ooooohhhh
Oh I just want to be loved
There’s a little bit of sadness
Oh I just want to be loved
There’s a little more madness
Oh I just want to be loved
There’s a little bit of sadness
Oh I just want to be loved
There’s a little more madness
Chorus
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I
Oh I
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I just want to be loved
Oh I
Oh I
Oh I
Oh I
