I've never written a song about a boy

There’s an old video on my mom’s phone

I must’ve been 6 or maybe 7 years old

Telling her “There’s no way in hell I’m getting married, you gonna have to drag me down the aisle”

I have memories, sitting at the TV, thinking none of my friends think like me

But they sure seem silly when they crush on the boys on screen

I must’ve written 500 songs, have callouses to prove it, just me and the music

But something always just felt wrong

Words without a tune, a wedding with a groom

Thеn I realized, I’ve nеver written one song about a boy

Then I’m 13 with my friends at school in the hallway

They’re talking about the dance on Friday

Wondering which boy will ask them but I don’t even wanna go

And at 16 I’m wondering why I hate the moves where some guy sweeps some girl off her feet

But somewhere deep down, I think I know

Cause I must’ve written 500 songs, have callouses to prove it, just me and the music

But something always just felt wrong

Words without a tune, a wedding with a groom

Then I realized, I’ve never written one song about a boy

And oooh, the world feels lighter now

I’m almost 20 and oooh

The world looks brighter now, now that I’m happy and

My parents say it’s nice to watch me look so free

And I think that I am finally me

I must’ve written 500 songs, have callouses to prove it, just me and the music

But something always just felt wrong

Words without a tune, a wedding with a groom

Then I realized, I’ve never written one song about a boy
