We used to talk about just how much it would kill if either found someone new

But can we just talk bout how for one of us that fear’s already come true


I should expect all broken promises

I shouldn’t ask so many questions

I should’ve long past learned my lesson by now


She’s got dimples and a beautiful smile

And she’s got caramel skin and honey pool eyes

I just think that it’s ironic that I ended up right

When I prayed not to be this time

Cause she’s always been there when I couldn’t be

And I really want to hate her but she’s been nice to me

I bet that she is everything that I’ll never be 

Oh she, she’s the one that’s got you, not me


And last time we talked you told me how much it would kill you if I found someone new

Like we didn’t talk bout how mine’s the one fear that’s already come true 


I should’ve seen this whole thing coming

I should’ve given up on hoping 

I shouldn’t still feel so broken by now


She’s got dimples and a beautiful smile

And she’s got caramel skin and honey pool eyes

I just think that it’s ironic that I ended up right

When I prayed not to be this time

Cause she’s always been there when I couldn’t be

And I really want to hate her but she’s been nice to me

I bet that she is everything that I’ll never be 

Oh she, she’s the one that’s got you, not me


And I bet she wears your t-shirts

And I bet you’re falling for her fast

And I bet she does it better

And I’m just the past


She’s got dimples and a beautiful smile

And where I’ve done it all wrong she’s done it right

I bet that she is everything that you wanna see

Oh she

She’s the one you let in when you stopped letting me

And I swear that I hate her but I just hate me

Cause I know that she is everything that I couldn’t 

be

Oh she, she’s the one that you want, not me

who was i when you last saw me? 

i’ve been 20 people since then 

who am i to introduce me 

when i don’t yet know who i am today 


i need the world to stay paused 


cause i’m in love with a stranger 

and she looks a lot like me 

i wanna be her later but i’m still tryna break free from me  


she keeps lavender in an empty glass bottle 

and sings songs bout running away

she keeps cutting her own hair and it’s funny 

she looks like someone else each day 


and she seems to make the world pause  


i’m in love with a stranger 

and she looks a lot like me 

i wanna be her later but i’m still tryna break free

i’m in love with a stranger 

and she’s the one that got away 

in a world of construction paper

i know i can’t stay 


she lives in a world she made up 


i’m in love with a stranger 

and she looks a lot like me 

i wanna be her later but i’m still tryna break free

i’m in love with a stranger 

and she’s the one that got away 

in a world of construction paper

i know i can’t stay

I feel like I’ve trapped you

can you breathe? have I stolen your lungs too?

'cause I aimed only to take your heart and keep it close to mine


I’ve become a bad habit

is it the kind that’s wrong the way you like it?

'cause I feel like I’m just here wishing it’s real when you and I keep trying to outrun time


I beg you to stay I know it’s so pathetic

how much I need you now but I’m hoping that you get it somehow

are all the red flags just in disguise as green lights?

can you read my mind?

because I beg you please don’t go


when walls fall down will we drown under the weight of all our apprehensions?

'cause with a hint of a pale rose tint can you just give me all of your attention?


I beg you to stay I know it’s so pathetic

how much I need you now but I’m hoping that you get it somehow

what now?


I tend to fight and fight for things I’ve already lost

it’s gotta be worth something anything

give me anything at all

please
