Genre: R&B pop? Idrk, help. I could change my mind lmao. Plz, idk-
This is like one of my worst songs I've ever written, but it's vocally fun to sing. It relies on hearing me sing it, not reading the lyrics. Like it soulfully hits different heard, not read. It's also just fun to sing in general, like boo hoo, you can't have me now.
1ST VERSE:
Ain't it funny? How it all worked out
You say you're in love with me now
As lovely as it sounds
Actually, you're a tad too late now
You see, I ain't seventeen like I used to be
So I can't help but to turn you down
I'm not to blame that you're reaching out late
We could've had it all, take this as a wake up call
Are you awake now?
PRE-CHORUS:
I bet it's 3 am and you can't help but to give me a thought
Until the sun rises, except I was your sunshine
That's when you come to realize it
That a love like mine is hard to find
All I ought to say is better luck next time
( *spoken* Except there won't be a next time haha )
( S/N: The haha is laughed obviously, not literally 'haha' )
CHORUS:
So tell me how's it feel
Falling head over heels
For someone you can't have
3 years you can't retract
This feeling; it's surreal
Could've been the real deal
Don't think I'll come running back
Cause I ain't coming back no more
What we could've had was shipped and sealed
Go ahead and mourn over that
POST-CHORUS:
And tell me how's it feel
Now you know how it feels
Tell me how it feels
How does it feel?
2ND VERSE:
Don't act so oblivious, when you started it
Struck a match, fire lit
But never came back to conspire it
PRE-CHORUS:
I bet it's 3 am and you can stop thinking 'bout my songs
Reminiscing about us, but it's a lost cause
The gate to that is locked
You're a little too late
That love decayed away in a cage
And you never were saving face, babe
*BRIDGE WAS NEVER WRITTEN*
I bet it's 3 am and you can't sleep in peace
Without dreaming of me
( I'll complete it someday... surely Not Today :D I'M SUPPOSED TO BE STUDYING BRO )
CHORUS:
So tell me how's it feel
Falling head over heels
For someone you can't have
3 years you can't retract
This feeling; it's surreal
Could've been the real deal
Don't think I'll come running back
Cause I ain't coming back no more
What we could've had was shipped and sealed
Go ahead and mourn over that
OUTRO:
Cause I ain't coming back
No, I ain't coming back no more
