[Verse 1]
I chase the feeling of being your favorite
That's why even when it hurts, I'll stay on
Like it's my calling
I'm holding out for you to realize we're a team
I'm your Marilyn, you're the silver screen
And you can hardly believe
[Pre-Chorus]
I remember everything you tell me
To impress ya, I hope it's working
Now we have these inside feelings
You can tell me all your secrets
I can be the one who consoles you
When you feel likе you're just a nobody
We can conquer thе world together
Until you think you found someone better, better
[Chorus]
And now you're gone, I have to move on
It wasn't unconditional
I'm right, you're wrong and time will unfold
And I'm like barely hanging on
I'm gonna need a minute, maybe more than that
To mourn this fantasy I had
You'll go and I'll stay, pretend it's okay
It wasn't unconditional, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm the one you text when you're lonely
Until you find another then I'm ghosted
To be honest
[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm the one who cleans up your messes
I'm the cure to your seasonal depression
I'm the fun idea 'til commitment
I know you think you tried, but you didn't, didn't
[Chorus]
And now you're gone, I have to move on
It wasn't unconditional
I'm right, you're wrong and time will unfold
And I'm like barely hanging on
I'm gonna need a minute, maybe more than that
To mourn this fantasy I had
You'll go and I'll stay, pretend it's okay
It wasn't unconditional
[Bridge]
Oh, remember when your mom said she liked me?
Oh, baby, I, I know you know this could be exciting
No, I'm not asking you for help
Anymore, just looking out for myself, yeah
