Love Online

I've been talking to strangers on the internet
And getting upset when they don't text back
Or message like you did
I'm wondering if they smile weird
Or drink cheap beer
These people I haven't met
Never thought that I'd be this bad, at talking
But, I never thought I'd have to 'talk' again

I really just hate the internet
These dating apps how
They don't understand
Why I hate the beach but love sand
Why I don't quit my job
Even though I feel sad
You're the only one who knew that
Guess that all has to change
But fuck that, oh, can we
Can we really not take it back?

'Cause I'm sick of the small talk
'What's up?', 'Come on over baby'
'What you doing here for?'
'Do you want to date me?'
Pick-up lines, I wish i'd never hear again
Let's meet up soon, and if I don't I'm a bitch
Swipe left, maybe right
What the fuck's a super like?
Got to pay, just to meet
Somebody I don't even like
What the hell am I doing on here?
When all I want to be is near you?
I just want to feel you, so

I just keep on hoping you call
'Cause I don't wanna love online
I just wanna love in real life
I gotta believe you hate this
Just as much as me
'Cause if I can't have you in real life
I just gotta love online

Love online
Love online
Love online
I don't wanna love online
Love online
Love online

Yeah I've been living my life since you left
Getting drunk on the weekends
And writing up hits
Hitting the gym like I care
And it's all going great
Except for the fact that
I really just miss my best friend
All the plans that we once had
'Cause now the future seems
Real bad, and I don't wanna party
I just want you back

I'm sick of the late nights, drinking
Wondering if you're thinking of me
First dates, long waits
Am I ever going to be
Okay enough to want to feel again?
And am I ever going to see you again?
It's a hit or miss, first kiss
Do they want me like this?
Am I being forward? Is this fast? Can I call it?
I feel unfaithful to everything we had
It's been two months
Do you still want to lose it all?
Is this girl really worth our fall?

'Cause, I just keep on hoping you call
'Cause I don't want to love online
I just wanna love in real life
I gotta believe you hate this
Just as much as me
'Cause if I can't have you in real life
I just gotta love online

Love online
Love online
Love online
I don't wanna love online
Love online
Love online
