Lyrics
[Verse 1]
His hair falls in cool, careless ways without trying
Goes days without crying, but still treats me kind
And it's not his fault all the sleep I've been losing
The way that I'm ruined, one look in his eyes
[PreChorus]
And I'm done, helplessly dumb
My senses go numb, my brain is on fire
They say wanting someone is supposed to be fun
That's because they never loved an
[Chorus]
Andrew
Honey, I know there's no one to blame but honestly
Damn you
It's just a cruel joke that chemicals play
You don't wanna kiss me 'cause I'm not at all
Like the girls in the posters that hang on your wall
What a time-wasting heartbreak to fall for an Andrew
[Verse 2]
He floats through the air unaware of the damage
A hard rite of passage for soft-hearted boys
He smiles like a friend, puts his hand on my shoulder
If I can't get closer then I am destroyed
[PreChorus]
And I'm done, helplessly dumb
My senses go numb, my brain is on fire
They just can't understand why it hurts me so bad
That's because they've never had an
[Chorus]
Andrew
Honey, I know there's no one to blame but honestly
Damn you
It's just a cruel joke that chemicals play
You don't wanna kiss me 'cause I'm not at all
Like the girls in the posters that hang on your wall
What a time-wasting heartbreak to fall for an Andrew
[Bridge]
What a time-wasting, sweet-happiness-taking
Self-esteem mess-making, heartbreaking shame
Wanna hold your hand and be more of a man like you
World falls apart for me, yours stays the same 'cause you're
[Outro]
Andrew
Honey, I know there's no one to blame but honestly
Damn you
It's just a cruel joke that chemicals play
You don't wanna kiss me 'cause I'm not at all
Like the girls in the posters that hang on your wall
Wish that I'd never met you at all
Sorry, Andrew
