A Wish With Teethv6

[Intro] [Spoken, intimate] I only wanted you to love me. [Soft electronic pulse] That was the wish. [Verse 1] I held the little charm beneath the streetlight. One careless promise. One impossible plea. I asked the dark to turn your heart toward me— and something in the dark answered. You came back smiling like the world had changed. You said my name as if it meant forever. I should have known a love without a choice was never love at all. [Pre-Chorus] You’re looking through me. You’re standing too close. I wanted your heart— not the ghost wearing it. [Chorus] I wished you would want me. I wished you would stay. Now every word you give me sounds like something I made. I wanted your love, but I stole your choice. Now your silence is louder than the wish in my voice. [Breakdown] [Harsh vocals] I ASKED FOR LOVE! I GOT CONTROL! I CALLED IT A WISH— IT TOOK YOUR SOUL! [Verse 2] The charm is cracked, but the wanting remains. You watch me sleep beneath the hallway light. You say you’re happy, then you start to shake. I keep pretending that this still feels right. Your old laugh flickers somewhere in the distance. I chase its echo through the rooms we share. I wanted you to choose me freely— then made sure you could not choose. [Pre-Chorus] You’re looking through me. You’re standing too close. I wanted your heart— not the ghost wearing it. [Chorus] I wished you would want me. I wished you would stay. Now every word you give me sounds like something I made. I wanted your love, but I stole your choice. Now your silence is louder than the wish in my voice. [Bridge] [Quiet clean vocals] If I break the charm, will I give you back your life? Or will I only break the last excuse I hide behind? [Build] I wanted to be chosen. I made you say yes. I called it devotion. I know what it is. [Final Chorus] I wished you would want me. I wished you would stay. Now every word you give me sounds like something I made. I wanted your love, but I stole your choice. I hear what I did in the silence of your voice. [Final Breakdown] [Harsh vocals] BREAK THE WISH! BREAK THE LIE! LET YOU GO— OR WATCH YOU DISAPPEAR! [Outro] [Spoken, fading] I only wanted you to love me. [The electronic pulse stops]
