I know I can be a good time
Maybe even easy to fall in love with
But I'm not exactly the type
You'd wanna spend your life with
'Cause autumn's fun till the colors change
And spring is fun till it starts to rain
Even though the showers are my favorite part
And you feel it hit you like a train
When it turns out that nothing stays the same
At least, it's not the way it was
Maybe you were really in love
Or maybe it was just a silly crush
On the light you assumed I could provide
Until you went and took half of mine
One man's burden is another man's gold
It got too hot for you to keep holding on
To a fire that burned so bright
You loved it until it left you blind
But after a month of being drunk on me
You'll see
That manic pixie dream girl ain't nothing but a dream
You gave me all this false hope
And fed me lines that you never meant to tell
But you can only expect him to be as honest with you
As he is with himself
But you don't treat people like fantasies
Or someone you hoped I'd eventually be
And then leave me here to clean up your mess
I never lied about who I was
And yeah, I know I was way too much
But Baby, now you're more than welcome
To go find less!
'Cause maybe you were really in love
Or maybe it was just a silly crush
On the light you assumed I could provide
Until you went and took half of mine
One man's burden is another man's gold
It got too hot for you to keep holding on
To a fire that burned so bright
You loved it until it left you blind
But after a month of being drunk on me
You'll see
That manic pixie dream girl ain't nothing but a dream
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
Ohhh
You wanted to stay inside
While I was void of all anxiety
Deep down, you know we weren't right
It was fun till you saw all of me
(You saw all of me)
Maybe you were really in love
Or maybe it was just a silly crush
On the light you assumed I could provide
Until you went and took half of mine?
One man's burden is another man's gold
It got too hot for you to keep holding on
To a fire that burned so bright
You loved me until I left you blind
But after eight months of being drunk on me
I'd see
You never loved me
You loved the manic pixie dream
