lyrics

I joined a tennis club
And I don’t even like sports
Now the only games I play
Are out on the court
Trading thoughts of you
For white sneakers and shorts
But there’s something so familiar
‘Bout the back-and-forth

We would just fall apart when I thought that we had it
Before I crossed the line, you were causing a racket
Playing on the same team, why’d you want the advantage?
(Maybe I’m being dramatic)

Now I’m sitting on the bench
‘Cause I’m so tired of running
No matter what I do
I’m always chasing something
I really hate the pessimist
That I’m becoming
But no matter what I do
It’s like love means nothing

I hate this tennis club
But I’m here every night
Working so hard
At this thing I don’t like
I feel so out of place
Under fluorescent lights
Around all these happy people
Who don’t got you on their mind

We would just fall apart, when I thought that we had it
Before I crossed the line, you were causing a racket
Playing on the same team, why’d you want the advantage?
(And yeah I’m being dramatic)

Now I’m sitting on the bench
‘Cause I’m so tired of running
No matter what I do
I’m always chasing something
I really hate the pessimist
That I’m becoming
But no matter what I do
It’s like love means nothing

I joined a tennis club
To get my mind off of you
That’s what the self-help books
All told me to do
Wanted to dye my hair blue
‘Cause it’s your least favourite colour
Instead I didn’t leave my parents’ house
The rest of the summer

Now I’m sitting on the bench
‘Cause I’m so tired of running
No matter what I do
I’m always chasing something
I really hate the pessimist
That I’m becoming
But no matter what I do
It’s like love means nothing
