This song highlights the intense feelings of having a big ol' crush, and then questioning whether those feelings are even valid, or if I'm just really all messed up inside.
The tag was kinda just bitter, to be honest.
lyrics
I think I've done it again,
And I know that I do this to myself.
I go overboard with all the fantasizing,
And now I've decided on you.
Now the moments I can get a taste of your attention
Make every other moment taste devoid of any flavor.
And when you turn away it's like the sun stops shining on me.
So here I am in hiding, 'cause I can't risk confiding in you.
It's easier behind this petty masquerade mask
That does a shoddy job of covering the truth.
Will I ever love again?
Or have I ever really loved at all?
Maybe what I've fooled myself for love is just repression, fear of loss,
And a sense of misplaced trust.
Either way, I'm crazy about you,
But every step I take feels like a step in the wrong direction.
I want you to live your best life, be your best self,
And come home to me.
So here I am in hiding, 'cause I can't risk confiding in you.
It's easier behind this petty masquerade mask
That does a shoddy job of covering the truth.
Don't think I'm ready for a new love.
Can't seem to get it right.
And I'm afraid of losing you, love.
But you were never mine.
I think I've done it again.
I think I've done it again.
I think I've done it again.
I think I've done it again.
--------------------------------------
Don't know why I am so hung up. You're not the one.
Don't know how I fell so in love. You're not the one.
You're not the one.
You're not the one for me.
You're not the one.
Now it's so plain to see.
Don't know how I got so hung up. You're not the one.
Don't know why I am so in love. You're not the one.
You're not the one.
You're not the one.
