Told me it's not worth the energy
Told me it's heartache and misery
Kept my heart locked away with a key
My room was wallpapered with naivety
And the rules were you should never bring a boy home
You just gotta be alone
Oh, you'll be more happy
Don't act so teenage, oh it's so cliche
There was so much jealousy
While the girls were running free
I would sit there quietly
I'd pretend to say I don't
I don't need a boyfriend
I'd make him laugh at me
Out of insecurity
I'd wear a T-shirt
Explain to me why I need a boyfriend
I don't need a boyfriend
Kept to myself in a sun lake
It always looked like ecstasy
Didn't know what it would really mean
To be touched, to be kissed, to be held softly
Cause the rules were you should never bring a boy home
You just gotta be alone
Oh, you'll be more happy
Don't act so teenage, oh it's so cliche
There was so much jealousy
While the girls were running free
I would sit there quietly
I'd pretend to say I don't
I don't need a boyfriend
I'd make him laugh at me
Out of insecurity
I'd wear a T-shirt
Explain to me why I need a boyfriend
Did I really miss out?
No, I didn't
But who would've even noticed?
I'm left alone
With my best friends
I'm left alone
Within my invisibility

I could never get by
I have so little.
I feel too hungry
I can't start
Keep losing myself
I don't need a boyfriend.
