lyrics

I can’t understand it
But it’s driving me insane
Whenever I close my eyes
I always see your face
And I do not know why
Well it just doesn’t make no sense
Oh is this real love?
Or do I just want sex?

It seems we're not supposed to be
With this toxic chemistry

But I can’t shut it off
No matter how hard I try to ignore you
It seems you’re always right there
Some days you seem to want me
Then some days you don’t seem to care
And I know what I got to do
But it seems I’m obsessed with you
And real fake love

Well maybe it’s ‘cause you’re pretty
Or your friendly morning smile
Or just the fact that you talk to me
Is that what’s driving me so wild?
‘Cause you don’t like my jokes
There’s no interests that we share
Hell we’re fighting half the time
So it’s clear that we don’t pair

So why am I alone at home
Always checking my phone?

Praying that you’ll text me
Just sending me a “hey” but the
“Heyyy” is spelled with three y’s
With a winkey-face emoji god-damn
I think that I would just die
But I know that you won’t so
I’ll just stay mad alone in
Real fake love

Well do you know just what you’re doing?
Well sometimes I swear you do
I think you’re using me to listen
And I’m happily your fool
You just vent about boys
All the ones that you can’t get
And I got no self esteem
And hope that I’m your safety net

Damn, what is wrong with me?
Well I never learn it seems

‘Cause it ain’t just you
It happens all the time
It’s a different girl every month
I swear another woman talks to me
And I fall right back in like a dunce
Does love get any better or
Do we all just weather lives of
Real fake love?
