Dear love, where have you been?
Why did you break my heart again?
I thought you'd be here
You’re just an illusion
You promised me you'd take care of my human

I do drugs to numb, you drink to forget
And we get along till it turns to regret
Did I scare you off with all of my feels?
You know for a second I thought you were real, but

Now, who’s gonna stop me from all my reckless behavior?
I don't know
I hate all these feelings, I gotta get them out

I'm writing dear love, oh
Why you tryna mess me up?
You got me writing dear love, oh
Why you tryna mess mе up?

God, it feels like
I'm outta my head, I'm outta my mind
I spill my thoughts on the dottеd line
Dear love
I hate all these feelings, I gotta get them out
Right now

Dear love, I should've known
That you couldn't handle it when I felt alone
I needed your care, just longed for affection
I wanted acceptance, you wanted perfection

I gotta tell you, I thought you were deeper, maybe a keeper
Thought you might be empathetic but you acted apathetic
Oh
And now you're just a ghost

Now, who’s gonna stop me from all my reckless behavior?
I don’t know
I hate all these feelings, I gotta get them out

I'm writing dear love, oh
Why you tryna mess me up?
You got me writing dear love, oh
Why you tryna mess me up?

God, it feels like
I'm outta my head, I'm outta my mind
I spill my thoughts on the dotted line
Dear love
I hate all these feelings, I gotta get them out
Right now

Dear Love
Why you tryna mess me up?
Got me writing dear love
Why you tryna mess me up?
