internet love Lyrics

(The screen hurts my eyes)

It all started online

One rainy night

Swiped left, swiped right

The screen hurts my eyes

You saw me, I saw you

Thought it'd be a match

You followed me back

If you want me, say you want me

Don't play these games

Leaving likes on my page

Don't be so vague

I put my best face forward for you

Carefully curated myself to seem cool

Did I capture your attention?

I'm craving your affection

But I'm lucky if I even see you

Text and call every night

Haven't seen you in real life

Oh God, I'm tired

Internet, internet love

Internet, internet love

Internet, internet love

This isn't how I want it to be

Wanna be at a cafe and spill my coffee

All over your new tee shirt, but you don't care

It feels as if the universe placed us here

Where's the romance?

Where's the slow dance?

Gliding 'cross the floor

Feels like we don't know how to talk anymore

Give me something real, not 2D

Something tangible

I put my best face forward for you

Carefully curated myself to seem cool

Did I capture your attention?

I'm craving your affection

But I'm lucky if I even see you

Text and call every night

Checking if you're online

Oh God, I'm tired

Internet, internet love

Internet, internet love

Internet, internet love

Everyone's so fake, fake, fake

Sit this one out, need a break

Letting my guard down is not safe

I'd rather be lonely

Need someone who can hold it down

Someone with their feet on the ground

So my head can be up in the clouds

He looked so good on the screen

But he couldn't handle me

Only liked what he saw in pixels

It's easier to judge by the cover

Don't want another online lover

I put my best face forward for you

Carefully curated myself to seem cool

Internet, internet love (so tired of it)

Internet, internet love (love)

Internet, internet love

(Internet, internet love)

(Internet, internet love)

(Internet, internet love)
