Searching For a Feeling

a 3w4 song; the disconnect from heart. “I’ve been searching for a feeling,” yet the line “Tell me you want me, tell me you need me to love you” — the addiction to this validation, which still isn’t getting through.

Also a very 4-ish flavor in this song, self-pitying, with “You shouldn’t tell me I make you proud, I don’t deserve any praise.” — but also the 3 being honest with itself, and indicating the core belief that makes it impossible for any praise to actually touch the 3
