the boys who don’t know what they want Lyrics by Avery ***
They’re kind and they’re careful
They show up but not all the way
They’re sweet and they’re there for a while
Till the title should change
They love to talk till the morning
Say things that feel so important
You’re quickly reminded they’re never a person who stays
It’s okay
But I don’t want to be wanted that way
I’m done holding on
To boys who don’t say what they want
Like it’s wrong
To feel something and tell them
I’m done finding someone
Who won’t ever try hard enough
The boys who don’t know what they want
They ask you your birthday like they won’t be strangers by then
They make just enough space in their life for you to barely fit
They love to hold your attention
Show you their only intentions
They feel like they’re yours for a while but they all end the same
It’s okay
But I don’t want to be wanted that way
I’m done holding on
To boys who don’t say what they want
Like it’s wrong
To feel something and tell them
I’m done finding someone
Who won’t ever try hard enough
The boys who don’t know what they want
I’m done holding on
To boys who play boyfriends for fun
Then it’s gone
Cuz nothing really happened
I’m done finding someone who won’t ever try hard enough
The boys who don’t know what they want
The boys who don’t know what they want
The boys who don’t know what they want
