[Segue]
So I think like the more you know you're going
To kind of like this fantasy world with us
You actually see how unhealthy-
[Verse 1]
I thought I found the way out of this mess
The reasons why I stress, the feelings
Of someone I once knew, I wonder what's been new
Besides the ever impending doom
You face inside your room, every night, every sight
Is like a five-star thriller on repeat, every night
In your head in that bed where we slеpt, endlessly
Devotеd to the face inside my screen
You miss one text and she'll prolly just scream
I wish it weren't so hard for me to be or, so you'd see
[Chorus]
That's not how it works, this love is so blurred
I know it probably hurts, put your heart in your purse
Better yet in a hearse, oh, that's not how it works
This love is so blurred, I know it probably hurts
Put your heart in your purse, Better yet in a hearse
That's not how it works
[Segue]
Yeah, so put your phone down baby
Promise you won't hate me
If I tell you maybe it's just not like that in real life
There's so much more worth your time, your time
[Verse 2]
Couple goals is all you want, take a pic
And call it love, count the likes to hype you up
Not as pretty as you thought
The last boy didn't work so well
Is it cause he didn't call you every night on your cell?
Or is it cause he saw
Through every single lie that you'd tell?
But you don't want to talk about it, that's just swell
Your positivity is fake as hell
Go cry about it you might just as well
There's just one thing that I have got to tell you
[Outro]
That's not how it works, this love is so blurred
I know it probably hurts, put your heart in your purse
Better yet in a hearse, oh, that's not how it works
This love is so blurred, I know it probably hurts
Put your heart in your purse, better yet in a hearse
That's not how it works
