The Other POV

Well, I guess the third time's not a charm

Nursing a three times broken heart

And down the rabbit hole again

I put myself in another world

Where I can be any other girl

'Cause I don't really wanna face it

'Cause, if it isn't real

You can pretend all you want

It's all you'll ever need

"That's not healthy," they said

"To live in your head"

But it hurts a lot less to me

I fall in love with boys I see on a TV screen

The ones in books who are as perfect as they can be

I spend all of my time imagining

What it would be like if they existed

My parents tell me I should look for one in real life

But I get let down by both the bad boys and the nice guys

I'm tired of giving more than I receive

So I'll just stick to the boys

Who don't know me

Oh, I hid his number, I almost called

Like, maybe he's hurting after all

I can't afford to be that naïve

I'll just keep wishing it was me

In that ending scene

Where they're meeting up halfway

And they're kissing in the rain

It's a little bit cliché

But I love it anyway

'Cause it's better than when you're walking home

And the rain starts pouring

But you're all alone

I fall in love with boys I see on a TV screen

The ones in books who are as perfect as they can be

I spend all of my time imagining

What it would be like if they existed

My parents tell me I should look for one in real life

But I get let down both the bad boys and the nice guys

I'm tired of giving more than I receive

So I'll just stick to the boys

Who don't know me

(Ohh-oh, ohh-oh)

I'd rather keep on dreaming of someone I'll never meet

(Ohh-oh) than give love to another one who won't choose me

(Ohh-oh, ohh-oh)

I'd rather keep on dreaming of someone I'll never meet

(Ohh-oh) than give love to another one who won't choose me

I fall in love with boys I see on a TV screen
