It hurts to see someone you’re crazy for with another person. You begin to wish you were in the lucky boy / girl’s place. You hate to see them hugging each other, holding hands, exchanging sweet comments on their Facebook profiles, and seeing them together in pictures. And because of that, you wish you were as beautiful / handsome as the boy / girl who’s in the clutches of the one you love. Admit it, you sometimes wish they break up. The disadvantages of falling for someone who’s taken.
The advantages: you start to look yourself better. You become obsessed with fashion and looking at the mirror. You develop your self-confidence. You try to be the best you can. What do you call this? Motivation. But here’s the glitch: you’re prone to bitterness, you start to hate your single life. You wish you swapped faces and lives with that person. It hurts so much, right? That’s what this picture is telling us.
When I feel down because of seeing all those happy relationships and people bragging how hot their boyfriend / girlfriend is, these lyrics get stuck in my head.
Tell you the truth i prefer
The worst of you
Too bad you had to have a better half
She’s not really my type
But i think you two are forever
And i hate to say it but you’re perfect together.
