The phone rings, I’m anxious for a second cause I know who I want it to be Why am I thinking of him right now? Why am I hoping he’s thinking of me? He’s been pulling my attention away He’s been making me dream while awake Oh dammit all, I’m in love I’m in love I’ve got a little crush again and I can’t get him out of my head And I’m laying in bed sighing cause I can’t stop daydreaming About the way he says I love you when he jokes around with me Oh dammit all, oh dammit all What’s the use of trying to put up a wall if I’m constantly falling in love? The phone rings, I’m disappointed for a second cause it’s not who I wanted it to be Why am I thinking of him right now? Why am I hoping he’s thinking of me? He’s been pulling my attention away He’s been making me dream while awake Oh dammit all, I’m in love I’m in love I’ve got a little crush again and I can’t get him out of my head And I’m laying in bed sighing cause I can’t stop daydreaming About the “haha you’re fantastic” in the last text he sent me Oh dammit all, oh dammit all What’s the use of trying to put up a wall if I’m constantly falling in love? There’s something that tells me he’s different than them There’s something I instantly knew But I can’t help but feeling that I’m rushing in Which is something they say that fools do It’s too late though, I’m in love I’m in love I’ve got a little crush again and I can’t get him out of my head And I’m laying in bed sighing cause I can’t stop daydreaming About something I thought I saw in him when he first looked at me Oh dammit all, oh dammit all What’s the use of trying to put up a wall if I’m constantly falling in love? Oh dammit all, oh dammit all What’s the use of trying to stay single if I’m constantly falling in love?

They say funerals are for the living and now I know it’s true I need this to get over you One, denial But I saw the love in his eyes Really, you shoulda seen it girl The way he looked at me He was thinking “future wife” And I know he’s just busy and that’s why he never answers my texts and we haven’t seen each other in two months They say funerals are for the living and now I know it’s true I need this to get over you Two, anger You son of a bitch I’m the shit How dare you play me like this? You bastard, it’s obvious I deserve better and I’m going to go and get it This is a eulogy for a ghost My love, gone too soon They say funerals are for the living and now I know it’s true I need this to get over you Three, bargaining Oh there must be something I can do Maybe we can just be friends Friends with benefits? If that’s something you’d be into I’m willing to do anything for you I mean anything, I’m really desperate right now, please They say funerals are for the living and now I know it’s true I need this to get over you Four, depression Can’t get out of bed Can’t seem to get your cute face out of my head I don’t matter to you No I can’t make you care But I really wish that you did This is a eulogy for a ghost My love, gone too soon They say funerals are for the living and now I know it’s true I need this to get over you Five, acceptance Still waiting for this one But I’m really hurt and not ready to move on Tragically taken before your time I never got a chance to call you mine They say funerals are for the living and now I know it’s true I need this, I need this Acceptance, please come quick Can’t keep living Like this Gotta put myself back out there now So I can get ghosted again

I wasn’t expecting much And good thing, cause you really would have let me down Now I feel we’re losing touch And I’m wondering if I should stick around Cause here’s the thing: you don’t really care about me There’s a hundred other people put before me But silence instead of a “no” It’s like should I stay or should I go So I press send and then I wait around I never had illusions about what I meant to you I know exactly where we stand I tell myself it’s nothing personal as I am waiting here Just another one of your 773 unread messages I spend hours composing texts Analyzing, asking for advice But all of them just stay unread And I doubt that you even think twice Cause here’s the thing: you don’t really care about me There’s a hundred other people put before me I’m sure it doesn’t bother you But I am left feeling uncool When I press send and then I wait around I never had illusions about what I meant to you I know exactly where we stand I tell myself it’s nothing personal as I am waiting here Just another one of your 1,162 unread messages And I don’t really trust you But you haven’t given me a reason to I've seen you push others away And that could be me on any given day I know that you won’t give me the attention that I need But I’m so desperate to be wanted so I’ll keep sending 'til you read I never had illusions about what I meant to you I know exactly where we stand I tell myself it’s nothing personal as I am waiting here Just another one of your 2,245 unread messages

Everywhere and nowhere, where I want to go with you Everywhere and nowhere, there’s so much we could do We could go to the grocery store We could go for a walk We could go dancing and get drunk We could just stay in and talk I’ll write a song about Miami I’ll write a song about LA I’ll write a song about how I don’t need those places if I’ve got you with me You know I’d love to go, but I’m just as happy if we stay Cause it’s not where we are, it’s the company It's the company Everywhere and nowhere, where I want to go with you Everywhere and nowhere, there’s so much we could do We could make some new fancy recipe I mean, you’d cook, I’d sit there and make jokes We could drive with the top down singing out We could stay in cause we’re broke You only think that you don’t have the time You don’t realize that I’m happy no matter where we go, no matter what we do As long as you’re mine I’ll write a song about Miami I’ll write a song about LA I’ll write a song about how I don’t need those places if I’ve got you with me You know I’d love to go, but I’m just as happy if we stay Cause it’s not where we are I’ll write a song about Miami I’ll write a song about LA I’ll write a song about how I don’t need those places if I’ve got you with me You know I’d love to go, but I’m just as happy if we stay Cause it’s not where we are No it's not where we are It's not where we are, it's the company

You’ve been in my head so much I should start charging you rent You take up lots of space and I haven’t seen a single cent Like the worst roommate ever cause I can’t get any peace The first thing when I wake up, the last thing before I sleep Ah I’ll change the locks I’m sorry you can’t stay here, though you’re charming and you’re cute But you don’t give me what I’m due, I’ve gotta give your ass the boot Like the worst roommate ever, make my life a living hell Cause when you’re here I can’t focus on anything else Ah I’ll change the locks This is your eviction notice, give me back my mind Oh you’re done, no more freeloading Babe, you’re out of time I want you out I can’t believe I let you stay so long for free I’d rearrange my life for you and you ain’t done nothing for me I’m throwing all your things outside cause I have to be strong You should have seen it coming, I’ve been patient far too long Like the worst roommate ever because I do all the work You know it’s really not that hard just not to be a jerk Ah I’ll change the locks This is your eviction notice, give me back my mind Oh you’re done, no more freeloading Babe, you’re out of time I want you out I can’t believe I let you stay so long for free I’d rearrange my life for you and you ain’t done nothing for me This is supposed to be my space And I would have been happy to let you stay And all you’d have to do my love, is pay me with your time But it’s too late This is your eviction notice, give me back my mind Oh you’re done, no more freeloading Babe, you’re out of time I want you out I can’t believe I let you stay so long for free I’d rearrange my life for you and you ain’t done nothing for me I wouldn’t mind a roommate ‘cause I feel pretty alone And all I need’s a little love to make this house a home But make me a priority or just see yourself out Cause you can’t take and never give, that’s not what love’s about Ah My door is always open, all you have to do is knock
