Web Crush
These lyrics reflect on a past relationship that started with late night text conversations and promises, but eventually faded away. The speaker feels hurt and deceived as they thought the relationship was love, but it turned out to be nothing more than a "web crush". The speaker feels foolish for pretending not to care and for being optimistic about the relationship. The outro acknowledges that the relationship was just a "web crush".
Verse 1
Late night texts at 4 am making promises was
all we could do
what did I expect?
was it a happy end?
you were turning the pages and I didn’t know
Pre Chorus
cause when I asked if you were okay
you said you had “too much on your plate”
yeah you were slowly fading away
but who was i to make you stay?
Chorus
cause you were nothing but a web crush
and i thought that it was love
but it hurts just as much
as any other love
Verse 2
when I was sad you sang me “wildest dreams”
well nothing is as good as it seems
you said you had my back never reply to my texts
was it something I said that made you upset?
Pre Chorus
cause now you rant
about star signs
saying the one you despise
yeah knowing well which one is mine
while I cry in my sleep every night
Chorus
cause you were nothing but a web crush
and i thought that it was love
but it hurts just as much
as any other love
Bridge
I’m such a fool
but I played it cool
pretending I didn’t care about you
but you made me believe
just so you could leave
my blind optimism makes me so naive
Outro
oh just a web crush
