She asked me if i'd ever been in love. I asked her if she could drink water today.

:::

We’re all falling in love
But not with the ones that want us
She chases her while she chases him
And I’m tying myself back to keep from running after him when he’s hung up on her
It’s not a circle just a bunch of squiggly lines
And lines mean there’s always someone at each end who’ll win
And who’ll lose

Origami butterflies on locker doors to driving home early from the dance
I’m trying my best not to look too much or get too close
And pretending that means I have control

He said they’d probably only last 6 months,
And if I could figure out how to make that a sex joke, I’d try to make her laugh
And I’m definitely not thinking about why they tell me about their failed attempts to get the girl

We’re all falling in love, and we’re all lying about it
