Scavenger
Scavenger: Unveiling the Emotion Behind the Shadows
Lyrics
I gave you the tide
I provided you with emotional support or a comforting presence.
You didn't stay
You did not remain; you chose to leave.
You didn't want it
You were not interested or did not desire the support I offered.
You let the day slide
You allowed time to pass without taking action, possibly missing opportunities.
Into a drain
Time or opportunities slipped away, and you did not seize them.
Until you lost it
As time passed, you lost the chance or the positive feelings associated with it.
You took me like a drug
You treated me as if I were a substance (like a drug) that could provide the feelings of love.
To make you feel loved
You used me to experience the sensation of being loved.
To make you feel wanted
Your intention was to feel wanted by involving me in your life.
To make you feel fire
You sought to ignite a passionate or intense feeling within yourself.
To make you feel like
You wanted to experience emotions associated with love and desire.
I made you feel something
I succeeded in making you feel a certain way.
'Cause you can feel nothing
You struggle to experience genuine emotions; you may feel numb or detached.
I know what you are (I know what you are)
I understand your true nature or character.
And you're a fake
You are not authentic or genuine; you pretend to be something you are not.
You're a scavenger (scavenger)
You scavenge for emotional fulfillment, taking from others without giving back.
Too scared to take part (too scared to take part)
You avoid participating fully in relationships or experiences due to fear.
You only take
Your actions are motivated by self-interest, taking without consideration for others.
'Cause you're a coward (coward, coward)
You lack courage and resort to manipulative or self-serving behavior.
On your own
When alone or isolated, you do not experience genuine love.
You have no love
You lack love when you are by yourself.
On your own
When alone, you do not possess anything of value or significance.
You're nothing at all
When isolated, you are essentially nothing.
You took me like a drug
Similar to line 8, you used me to feel loved and wanted.
To make you feel loved
Reiteration of the idea that you utilized me for emotional satisfaction.
To make you feel wanted
Reiteration of the desire for emotional connection and validation.
To make you feel fire
Reiteration of the desire for intense and passionate feelings.
To make you feel like
Reiteration of the idea that you used me to feel a certain way.
I made you feel something
I succeeded in making you feel a certain way.
'Cause you can feel nothing
Emphasis on your difficulty in experiencing genuine emotions.
