Just Another Boy
You’re just another love song
On replay in my head
You’re just another thought passing by
When I’m lying in my bed
You’re just a bad distraction
from the things I need to do.
You’re just another boy
And I want to get rid of you.
And to you, I’m just a girl
That you see in the hall.
I’m just your friend’s best friend
That’s too shy to talk at all.
I’m the odd one out
But you wonder and doubt
If I belong with them at all.
And I’ve tried and tried and tried
To tell myself you’re no different from the rest.
I won’t be able to take this
I’ve already cried all the tears built up in my chest.
I’m screaming at myself
“Don’t put yourself thought this!”
And then I look into your eyes,
And those thoughts are dismissed.
I remember why I play the love song on repeat
I remember why I think about you when I’m trying to sleep
I remember why I distract myself with your laugh and your voice.
You’re not just a boy.
And I don’t want to get rid of you.
But it might save me some pain
If I could find someone new.

Im such a hopeless romantic, and I tend to fall too hard for people who hardly know I exist.
