[Verse 1]
I'm not too pretty to try
Could this be flirting or are you just kind?
I'm not too sure I'm your type
But we're playing pretend it's fine
I can not tell a lie
Tried on your last name last night
I wanna say it fit fine
Took one breath in and the seams split wide
[Pre-Chorus]
To help me fall asleep
I hope you wanted me to stay
I close my eyes, convince myself either way
[Chorus]
I can understand
If you're just faking
She wrote the book
I'm a filler page in
Tell me the truth
See if I can take it
It's fine
'Cause you can't give me back my time
[Verse 2]
Ex-lovers on your mind
I'll never be her and you know I'm right
I wish that love was blind
So you can't see the warning signs
[Pre-Chorus]
To help me find some peace
I tried to run away
I closed my eyes, convince myself I wanna stay
[Chorus]
I can understand
If you're just faking
She wrote the book
I'm a filler page in
Tell me the truth
See if I can take it
It's fine
But you can't give me back my time
And all the hours
I wasted sitting on your roof top
In secret after all this
We're faking
It's fine
But you can't give me back my time
[Bridge]
I'm not too pretty to try
I don't wanna waste my time
I'm too weak to deny
I don't wanna waste my life
[Chorus]
I could understand
If you're just faking
She wrote the book
I'm a filler page in
Tell me the truth
See if I can take it
It's fine
I can understand
If you're just faking
She wrote the book
I'm a filler page in
Tell me the truth
See if I can take it
It's fine
But you can't give me back my time
And all the hours
I wasted
In secret
We're faking
It's fine
I'm done wasting my own time
