[Verse 1]
G#mFeels like I'm losing my mind
BEspecially out of my depth this time
EWhy you, why you, why you
Why you waiting for a better lC#ife?
G#mFeels like I'm just a friend
Or Bis it my selective listening?
EWhy you, why you, why you
Why you waiting for a better lC#ife?
[Pre-Chorus]
G#mYou're never, you're never open F#with me
EObviously, I'm a little C#mcrazy
So G#mwhy you, why you, why you
Why you F#waiting for a better lEife?
[Chorus]
G#mNo, F#it wasn't meant to Ebe
We don't C#mknow a lot about each G#mother
We're just F#amateurs in Elove
(Ama-amateurs-C#mamateurs in love)

We don't C#mknow a lot about each G#mother
We're just F#amateurs in Elove
(Ama-amateurs-C#mamateurs in love)

G#mYou're scared of sharing yourself
UneBquivocally distant for somebody else

Why you gotta take it personallC#y?
