Lyrics
[Verse]
Every day, I played the role you wanted me to play
I pretended to be someone I wasn't meant to be
But in the mirror, I saw the truth that couldn't stay
I realized, I had to break free
[Verse 2]
I was just a character in your perfect little script
A cardboard cutout, a figment of your imagination
But deep inside, I knew my heart couldn't be stripped
I needed more than your love simulation
[Chorus]
And that's when I knew you weren't in love with me
The image you built was something I could never be
Living up to your expectations was always a fantasy
I'm real, not your 2-D waifu
[Verse]
I thought we had something real, a love that would never fade
But little did I know, it was all just a masquerade (oh-oh)
You painted a picture perfect, a vision so divine
But the truth was hidden, you were just playing with my mind
[Chorus]
And that's when I knew you weren't in love with me
The image you built was something I could never be
Living up to your expectations was always a fantasy
I'm real, not your 2-D waifu
[Verse 2]
I tried to be your everything, to be what you desired
But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't light your fire (oh-oh)
You wanted a doll, someone to fit your perfect mold
But I'm a living, breathing person, not something to be controlled
[Verse]
You painted a picture, a love so divine
But I saw the cracks, your words weren't benign
I tried to be perfect, to fit your design
But I'm real, not your 2-D waifu, I'm one of a kind
[Verse 2]
You held me up high, like a trophy on display
But behind closed doors, your love started to fray
I couldn't be your princess in your make-believe play
I'm real, not your 2-D waifu, I won't be led astray
[Chorus]
And that's when I knew you weren't in love with me
The image you built was something I could never be
Living up to your expectations was always a fantasy
I'm real, not your 2-D waifu, I won't live in agony
[Chorus]
And that's when I knew you weren't in love with me
The image you built was something I could never be
Living up to your expectations was always a fantasy
I'm real, not your 2-D waifu
[Chorus]
And that's when I knew you weren't in love with me
The image you built was something I could never be
Living up to your expectations was always a fantasy
I'm real, not your 2-D waifu
