Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You cut your hair I missed the day Scroll your feed Pretend I’m okay Group chat plans Same old store You try on jackets Spin on the floor (hey!) [Pre-Chorus] Everyone jokes We’d be cute together You roll your eyes Say “you’re like my brother” I laugh too loud Change the subject fast Hide that hit Like a car crash [Chorus] You can’t have a rom-com romance with your childhood friend No soundtrack swell Just the word “best” Stuck in the credits of a film that never begins I bite my tongue again Again You can’t have a rom-com romance with your childhood friend We know too much Every scar Every mess If I say I love you It rewrites everything So I’ll stay your idiot Smiling at the end (oh no) [Verse 2] Your mom still calls Me “that sweet boy” Hands us snacks Like we’re kids with toys You steal my fries From the same old tray You say “don’t ever Grow up Okay?” [Pre-Chorus] You ask me straight “Who you crushing lately?” I name a stranger Laugh it off vaguely Your face relaxes You start to tease My chest goes tight I just say “please” [Chorus] You can’t have a rom-com romance with your childhood friend No rooftop kiss in the summer rain Just inside jokes and your head on my shoulder again And me rehearsing words I never send You can’t have a rom-com romance with your childhood friend Our photo albums would turn into weapons If I cross the line and I can’t get back again So I’ll stay your idiot Smiling at the end (yeah, yeah) [Bridge] Maybe someday You’ll miss my name Call at midnight Say “I feel strange” I’ll run to you Like I always do Praying this scene Finally changes cue (oh) [Chorus] You can’t have a rom-com romance with your childhood friend So I’ll clap I’ll cheer for whoever you pick Learn their playlist Pretend it doesn’t sting I’m your background extra Trying not to win You can’t have a rom-com romance with your childhood friend But if the world ever flips the script again If opening credits ever start to roll in I’ll say “I’ve loved you since we were ten” (hey) Till then I’m your idiot Smiling at the end

rock, Upbeat J-pop/pop punk hybrid with male vocals, bright distorted guitars over bouncy drums and syncopated bass. Verses stay tight and rhythmic, almost talk-sung, then explode into a wide-open anime-style chorus with stacked gang shouts on key lines. Add shiny synth leads doubling the hook, brief half-time pre-chorus drop, and a final chorus modulation for maximum feel-good heartbreak., pop, anime, j-pop, pop punk
