I Tried Too Hard

I kissed you, but I guess I don't know why
The loneliness was overwhelming from the other guy
And I needed to feel something real
But maybe you didn't have it
Leaned in out of habit
And I tried too hard to make you the one

I kissed you, but I guess I don't know why
In your garage after the party late that night
And I needed to feel something real
But you stared too long and
I really should've looked away but
I tried too hard to make you the one

I don't wanna be here
I just want to go home
Leave me alone
I just want to wear my own coat
I just don't feel a thing
and darling how am I supposed to fake it,
Put on a face for so long?
I don't think I could love you at all

I kissed you, but there wasn't ever a spark
Aren't fireworks supposed to light up if I like you that much?
But it wasn't Fourth of July,
it was a pretty, white lie
But I couldn't pull away and
You held me scooped in your arm bend
And I tried too hard to make you the one

I don't wanna be here
I just want to go home
Leave me alone
I just want to wear my own coat
I just don't feel a thing, and darling how am I supposed to fake it,
Put on a face for so long?
I don't think I could love you at all

Tell me something
That the other girls don't know
Make me feel special
Is this a one night thing or no?
You just always leave me hanging
Call it quits but I'm the one you're blaming
And maybe it's a shame, and a waste
But I don't wanna be here

I just want to go home
Leave me alone
I just want to wear my own coat
I just don't feel a thing
And darling, how am I supposed to fake it,
Put on a face for so long?
I don't think I could love you at all
