🎵 “Why Not Me?” — Original Song for You
(Verse 1)
He walks in like the world bends for him
Basketball in his hands, yeah he always wins
Karate boy with a smile that kills
But he plays every heart, and he plays for the thrill
And I hate that I’m still falling again
Confessed once, he turned it into a game
Confessed twice, and he walked away
But somehow he still stays in my brain
(Pre-Chorus)
Every girl he chooses makes me feel small
Like I’m waiting for something that will never come at all
(Chorus)
Why not me?
Why can’t he ever look at me the way I dream?
I think of him all day, he’s all I see
But I wake up every morning feeling empty
Why not me?
Why does my heart still chase what it can’t keep?
It hurts to love someone who won’t love me
Why… not… me?
(Verse 2)
I get jealous when he laughs with another girl
Feels like she gets the world
While I’m staring at my ceiling at night
Dreaming he might choose me this time
But he’s a player and I know that it’s true
Still I hope he’ll change when he sees me too
But love doesn’t work the way I want it to
And I’m tired of feeling like I’m always gonna lose
(Bridge)
Maybe it’s not that I’m not enough
Maybe he just can’t give real love
Maybe I’m meant for someone who sees
Everything I am… and still chooses me
(Final Chorus)
Why not me?
Why did I fall so deep for a fantasy?
I’m learning how to let go slowly
But it still stings when he walks past me
Why not me?
Someday someone will answer differently
But for now I’m healing quietly
From the boy… who never chose me
