I light the room, then boom — I’m out too soon
All my friends, they glow and shine
I just sip and stand in line
Pick a seat, they pick the rest
Guess who’s left? Take a guess
Maybe it's the way I joke
Maybe it's my Diet Coke
Confidence? I got a bit
Still, I’m the one who doesn’t hit
Always me, always me
Last picked in the meet-and-greet
Laugh too loud, vibe too free
I light the room, then boom — I’m out too soon
Always me, can’t you see?
Not the bomb, but the casualty
Talked to one, he liked my friend
Told me, “You’re nice,” that’s the end
Funny girl, but not the type
I guess I’m just the punchline hype
Maybe I should change my hair
Maybe go with glassy stare
But even when I dress the part
Cupid skips me from the start
Always me, always me
Lost again in the symmetry
Cool and bold, still not she
I bring the fire, but burn too quietly
Always me, that’s the key
One by one, they pass by me
They say "just be yourself"
But self’s left on the shelf
Every meeting feels the same
One-sided matching game
Always me, always me
The wildcard in a losing spree
Got the jokes, got the tea
Still not the one they wanna see
Always me, truthfully
One day, I’ll be the MVP
maybe.
