(So, here′s the deal)
I met this guy like a month ago
I got to thinking and I was like: What the hell!
The only problem is that he's on a screen
But he is the man of my dreams
And in my head I had it all planned out
A little picket fence and a house (three dogs)
It′s stupid
My mind is not grasping that he's on paper
(I guess I'll just) hold my breath and count to ten
Why do I always fall for fictional men?
My heart and my mind won′t seem to align
′Cause I feel real things for a fake ass guy
And I'm way too old to play pretend
But still I always fall for fictional men
My heart and my mind won′t seem to align
'Cause I′ve fallen in love with a fictional guy
The actor's cute, but he′s like 33
I guess that's only ten years older than me (give or take)
Maybe I'm dumb or it′s just quarantine
To be completely honest, 2020 is killing me
Come on kid, you know it kinda sucks
We get it, you′ve been alone for like six months
But he's not real, face the facts
This is a coping mechanism, clean up your act
(Yeah, I know, I think I′m just gonna)
Hold my breath and count to ten
Why do I always fall for fictional men?
My heart and my mind won't seem to align
′Cause I feel real things for a fake ass guy
Way too old to play pretend
But still I always fall for fictional men
My heart and my mind won't seem to align
′Cause I've fallen in love with a fictional guy
Hold my breath and count to ten
Why do I always fall for fictional men?
My heart and my mind won't seem to align
′Cause I feel real things for a fake ass guy
I′m way too old to play pretend
But still I always fall for fictional men
My heart and mind won't seem to align
′Cause I've fallen in love with a fictional guy
