I’ve spent too much time pressing replay
When I should’ve been hitting fast forward
I’ve slowed down my life, playing these memories
When I should’ve been making new ones
I’ve eaten too many tubs of ice cream, used too many spoons
That could’ve been used for a celebration
I’ve spent years, trapped in this loop hole, this repeat button
But now I finally break free
I thought you were the one for me, my one true love, but
I guess I was wrong
I think I have finally found that one person
And that person who loves me is me.
