the desire for acceptance + intimacy is undoubtedly one of the most central necessities as a person. besides basic human needs, a sense of belonging + support is essential for the maintenance of self-worth. however, as ignobly demonstrated by david, forcing love is at no time + in no way defensible. instead, such unseemly expectations + exploits will ensure isolation.

lyrics

i am a good person; i deserve to be loved
though i might be mistaken re: the statement thereof
i have tried with endeavour for a minute of time
to restore first impressions – maybe, change your mind

to this end, remember with me of the day that our eyes met
locked at once in a blinking duel, where neither one would submit
can’t we backtrack right to the start before the deconstruction
i still can’t place that disconnect you call an indiscretion

i’m not a bad person; you owe me your love
i’ve earned your surveillance, veneration in blood
you’ve seen how i’m worthy of unceasing acclaim
eulogize while still living – undo what became

after all that’s been, after all we were, why do you give up now?
can’t you not see ignoring me converts all highs to low?
as i recall it was you that left – unwilling to respond
i tried my best to redact the past, to reanimate our bond
maybe if you tried to visualize, to take another view
adjusted frame of reference + traded me from you
you’d come to see, you’d do the same, you’d grasp my motivation
the action you might choose would be resolve not abdication

i am a good person, i deserve to be loved
are you a good person? do you deserve love?
i’m a good person, so i deserve love!
