I'm excited to finally share my debut single, "as long as you love me" with you all. I wrote this song 3 years ago about all of my experiences with loneliness and neglect. I think my entire life I've always just wanted to be thought of, prioritized, and loved. But alas, I didn't grow up with many nor the strongest relationships and ended up having to be overly independent. Part of me feels like that's why I started Youtube? To create a community that made me feel loved and important? Anyway, I'm happy to say I'm in a way better place now. I have really good people in my life that make me feel so special which is something I never thought I'd find. This song is dedicated to anyone who always seems to be the last choice, who may come off a little too strong, and who care just a little too much. If you're not anyone's favorite person, just know, you're mine.
thank you to my lovely friends, liya, amanda, and alysha, who helped me film this visualizer. thank you to aden for working on this song with me. thank you to adam for making it possible. thank you to all of my friends who supported me bts. and of course, thank YOU! your support means the world. genuinely.

LYRICS:
I find comfort in the sorrow
Of always waiting for tomorrow
A broken record sings that I'm liable
But the aching feeling lingers
You put my mouth under your finger
I get a feeling when you show kindness to me
Tell me i'm worthy, I want your word
A stab in the back, I'll dance in a twirl
As long as you'll have me, say that you want me
Please, promise me, that you still love me
Cause i'm the last human on earth
Maybe with a better reputation
I'd have a grasp on your attention
But then again, I guess, you were just being nice
I accept it was for a season
The silence came in for a reason
You don't have much to say anymore and that's alright
(that's alright.. right?)
A little too desperate, a little too strong
I hover around for a little too long
A little too invested before it even starts
When they don't seem to care whether you both grow apart
So take in this salvation
Force myself to let go of expectations
Of this haven
of validation
from you
Tell me i'm worthy, I want your word
A stab in the back, I'll dance in a twirl
As long as you love me, say that you love me
Please, promise me, that you still love me
Cause i'm the last human on earth
