Crumbs of love

I'd hand you the whole ocean

I'd gladly hand you the whole ocean, but you'd still want more,

The moon, the stars, you'd say it's not what you're looking for,

I promised to have your back, but you waved it away,

Seems like you prefer quick thrills over a stable every day.

It was never a competition; we were in this together,

I used to feel secure, 'til your attention drifted like a feather.

I simply asked for some care but got met with rejection,

You wanted the world, and I gave you my heart's affection.

In return, you gave me just crumbs of your devotion,

Yet I willingly poured out my heart and soul with emotion.
