Why not me?

🎵 “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
