I give all of myself,  
And never ask for anything. 
I do everything I can, 
But what’s in it for me? 
Sometimes you have to be a little selfish. 
Because if you don’t,  
you’ll run yourself ragged. 
 
I deserve better, 
And better is what I’ll get. 
I deserve better, 
I know now what better is. 
I deserve better, 
I give and I give, 
till I have nothing left. 
I deserve better,  
Better is what I’ll get. 
 
I know I’m not perfect, 
I’ve done stupid and reckless shit. 
I know I’m not the best, 
But I have a good heart, 
And right now it’s a mess. 
 
I deserve better, 
And better is what I’ll get. 
I deserve better, 
I know now what better is. 
I deserve better, 
I give and I give, 
till I have nothing left. 
I deserve better,  
Better is what I’ll get.

Met You Yet

By Annabel Chima

This lyric highlights the fantasy world we build in our minds when we are infatuated with someone. The repetitive technique of each verse emphasises the persistence and determination of the human mind. We love to convince ourselves we are in love, even if we have not "met [them] yet." The lyric has a slightly comical undertone. The overall vibes/atmosphere of this song is sexy, euphoric and romantic. You are guaranteed a satisfied audience. It fits perfectly into most genres.

Heart Of Gold

By Karlo Čavlović

A song which made it to the finals of the 2019 International Songwriting Competition (ISC). It is a song about unconditional love for your significant other and even though times might get tough and they might end up alone at some point, they should keep fighting. Through those battles, they'll know you're still with them.

Walls

By Steven Mailer

Singer laments the death of their lover in the home they built together that has become an oppressive reminder of everything they've lost. The singer resigns themself to becoming a ghost, haunting the rotting body of a dead love, etching the memories of the one they lost into the wood and stones for all time.
