LYRICS
You’re a complicated puzzle
I so badly wanna piece together to justify my mental strife
Could the big picture maybe muffle
all the sirens going off?
And then my friends can’t say they were right

No guys I swear! He’s not emotionally unavailable, he’s just traumatized
No guys I swear! He’s not a lost cause, it’s just he hasn’t met the girl that will fix his life
(But who am I kidding?)

Your eyes, ever-shifting
Something’s always missing
Why can’t you look at what’s in front of you!!

Focus for once
What is it that you want?
You’d probably burst into flames if you ask yourself that
I shouldn’t stick around
You got a girl that’s a “friend” in every town
Who’s the cliché, who’s the clown?
Which one’s me, which one’s you?
Either way, it’s true
Wish you’d focus on what’s in front of you right now
(Wish you’d focus on what’s in front of you right now)

Don’t talk to me about your last date
I’m seething through my smile
I hope she stubs her toe next time she texts
Her name is probably Cecilia
She shops at Aritzia
And has your lips all over her neck

What are the odds that you actually like me and not just the chase?
Prolly embarrassingly low!
Are you The Exception or do I just like your music taste?
I can’t tell, I don’t know

What’s important to you? (God knows!)
I keep looking for clues (Oh no!)
Be a big boy and face the fucking truth

Focus for once
What is it that you want?
You’d probably burst into flames if you ask yourself that
I shouldn’t stick around
You got a girl that’s a “friend” in every town
Who’s the cliché, who’s the clown?
Which one’s me, which one’s you?
Either way, it’s true
Wish you’d focus on what’s in front of you right now
(Wish you’d focus on what’s in front of you!)

Focus for once
You know what you want

niki really said “THIS ONE’S FOR YALL BACKBURNERS AGAIN” 🎀

[Yana_]

"why can't you look at what's in front of you" is equal to= Take a Chance with Me = Guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner

[yooneun]

other " focus for once " were said out of frustration but the last one sounds like bagging and trying not to say " please " . Niki, you're such a genius for this.

[forever_stay]

Definitely backburner vibes because I wish I could tell the guy putting me on the backburner to focus on what's right in front of him!?!!!

[NasirPNPL]

Gw sumpahin Lo secepatnya bakal jadi penyanyi indo internasional yang sukses seperti Taylor Swift dan jajarannya, aamiin

You're a complicated puzzle
I so badly wanna piece together
To justify my mental strife
Could the big picture maybe muffle
All the sirens going off
And then my friends can't say they were right

No, guys, I swear he's not emotionally unavailable
He's just traumatized
No, guys, I swear he's not a lost cause
It's just he hasn't met the girl that'll fix his life (But who am I kidding?)
Your eyes ever-shifting
Something's always missing
Why can't you look at what's in front of you?

Focus for once
What is it that you want?
You'd probably burst into flames
If you ask yourself that I
Shouldn't stick around
You got a girl that's a friend in every town
Who's the cliché, who's the clown?
Which one's me, which one's you?
Either way it's true
Wish you'd focus on what's in front of you right now

Wish you'd focus on what's in front of you right now

Don't talk to me about your last date
I'm seething through my smile
I hope she stubs her toe next time she texts
Her name is probably Cecilia
She shops at Aritzia
And has your lips all over her neck

What are the odds that you actually like me, and not just the chase?
Probably embarrassingly low
Are you the exception or do I just like your music taste?
I can't tell, I don't know
What's important to you (God knows)
I keep lookin' for clues (Oh, no!)
Be a big boy and face the fucking truth

Focus for once
What is it that you want?
You'd probably burst into flames
If you ask yourself that I
Shouldn't stick around
You got a girl that's a friend in every town
Who's the cliché, who's the clown?
Which one's me, which one's you?
Either way it's true
Wish you'd focus on what's in front of you right now

Wish you'd focus on what's in front of you

(Focus for once)
(You know what you want)
