She's Got a Boyfriend Now

My heart is a mess right now but I promise I'll heal and be okay
Alcohol and love songs until these feelings go away
I hope he loves you right and you get to wear a crown
I've got to let go because she's got a boyfriend now 

I'm not mad, I'm just really badly hurt 
I'm trying to wish you the best, but my poetry has the saddest words
I had no right to fall for you, but how many times has a heart been wrong? 
I need to be weak, until I can find a way to be strong 

I don't know him but I hope he treats you right
I hope when you need him, he doesn't leave your side
Even though the thought of you with another man, makes me feel sick
For you to be happy is my only wish 

I've got to pretend you don't exist in order to fix my heart 
I blocked you because pictures of you and him will rip me apart 
If it doesn't work out, or he begins to make you feel alone
Please leave me out of it, I don't want to see your name flash up on my phone

I won't be a second choice, or someone to do that favour 
You chose him, so I'm not going to be here for you later 
They say there's plenty more fish, but you had me hooked
I don't need a new girl yet, Brandy and Weeknd's music will be enough

I'll get over you, it'll just take some time
Trying to think of anything to keep you off my mind
I had to let go, I don't have it in me to be around 
I wish you were still mine, but you have a boyfriend now
