Why Can't Dating Just be Easy?

I've been on 13 dates this year
3 of them were with the same guy
And I thought maybe he was it for me
But I was so wrong

He took me out and we got drinks
Which is great for the first time
But boy, let's be a little more original for dates 2 and 3

Yeah, I'm getting lots of stuff for free
But does that even really mean a thing
When I've got social anxiety
It always feels like I'm suffocating

I'm so tired
So damn tired of playing the game
Why can't dating just be easy, easy, easy
Oh

2 others were with another dude
Who thought really highly of me
And I still hate that I had to go off and break his heart after just two weeks

The other 8 were all different guys
And they all went miserably
If I'm being honest,
I didn't even wanna go but I don't know how to say no

Yeah, I'm getting lots of stuff for free
But does that even really mean a thing
When there's mascara on my cheeks
Gosh it's like it's never ending

I'm so tired
So damn tired of playing the game
Why can't dating just be easy, easy, easy
Like this is agony

I'm so tired
Damn tired of playing their pageant queen
Why can't dating just be easy, easy, easy
Oh

The timing's tragic
Cuz when they want me
I don't want them
It's annoying

Cuz when I want them
They don't want me
Where's my Goddamn happy ending?

The movies are all a hoax
By the way, just so you know
There's no real life prince charming
There's no saving
Just castles falling

I'm so tired
So damn tired of playing the game
Why can't dating just be easy, easy, easy
Like this is agony

I'm so tired
Damn tired of playing their pageant queen
Why can't dating just be easy, easy, easy
Oh

The movies are all a hoax
By the way, just so you know

I am not going out with you
