What's It Like To Be Loved?

from Out Of The Loop by hiyimi

lyrics

Turn the lights out when I come in
I leave my fears by the door
Wasn’t expecting anyone to be here
But I don’t know what I was hoping for

What’s it like to be loved
In the way that you’re always enough?
What’s it like to be wanted?
To turn around and not feel like you’re at risk
Of those people with their knives and bad intentions and death wishes
Coming straight for you
Of those people who were waiting for you to miss one step
So they could pull the rug out from you

I leave my enemies at the door
They’re not coming in
‘Cause I get to choose who’s allowed to listen
But I don’t choose who wins

What’s it like to be loved
In the way that you’re always enough?
What’s it like to be wanted?
To turn around and not feel like you’re at risk
Of those people with their knives and bad intentions and death wishes
Coming straight for you
Of those people who were waiting for you to miss one step
So they could pull the rug out from you

And my secrets might be sold to the highest bidder
I don’t know who I can trust
But that’s okay, it’s been a learning experience
For what’s done is already done

What’s it like to be loved
In the way that you’re always enough?
What’s it like to be wanted?
To turn around and not feel like you’re at risk
Of those people with their knives and bad intentions and death wishes
Coming straight for you
Of those people who were waiting for you to miss one step
So they could pull the rug out from you
I leave my enemies at the door
They’re not coming in
‘Cause I get to choose who’s allowed to listen
But I don’t choose who wins
