This lyrical composition explores the complexities of unrequited love and desire. The protagonist is entranced by a male figure who remains indifferent to her affections, creating an emotional paradox where his apathy only intensifies her longing. The line "Why can't you want me like the other boys do?" encapsulates this frustration, suggesting that while she is desired by others, her heart yearns for someone who does not reciprocate these feelings. This theme is further underscored by the repeated phrase "I crave you," emphasizing the intensity of her longing. Moreover, the metaphor of a 'silver cage' suggests confinement and restriction, indicating that her emotions are trapped within an unfulfilling relationship. The song thus serves as a poignant exploration of one-sided affection and its accompanying emotional turmoil. 🖤
Crave You
Lyrics
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I stare at you
Why can't I keep you safe as my own?
One moment I have you the next you are gone
Rehearsed steps on an empty stage
That boy's got my heart in a silver cage
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I crave you
I walked into the room dripping in gold
Yeah dripping in gold
I walked into the room dripping in gold
Dripping in gold
A wave of heads did turn, or so I've been told
Or so I've been told
My heart broke when I saw you kept your gaze controlled
Oh I cannot solve
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I stare at you
Why can't I keep you safe as my own?
One moment I have you the next you are gone
Rehearsed steps on an empty stage
That boy's got my heart in a silver cage
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I crave you
It's true I crave you
Crave you
It's true I crave you
Na na na na na na
Na na na
Na na na na na na
Crave you
na na na na na
Na na na
Na na na na na na
Let's just stop and think, before I lose face
Surely I can't fall, into a game of chase
Around his little finger, that boy has got me curled
I try to reach out, but he's in his own world
This boy's got my head tied in knots with all his games
I simply want him more because he looks the other way
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I stare at you
Why can't I keep you safe as my own?
One moment I have you the next you are gone
Rehearsed steps on an empty stage
That boy's got my heart in a silver cage
Why can't you want me like the other boys do?
They stare at me while I crave you
I am craving you
I am craving you
