Lyrics

Rocket Science

[Verse 1]

Superficial small talk

Surface level we'd walk

You’d fake a smile in front of company

The smallest things set you off

Didn't matter what I did, it was my fault

You even made me hate my family

[Pre-Chorus]

I watched you give your everything to everyone but me

And now I'm twenty-five and still questioning

[Chorus]

Why was loving me rocket science?

I’m not impossible, but you just weren't trying

If you saw me now, could you justify?

Would you say sorry, would you tell me why? Oh

Why was loving me rocket science

Science, science

[Verse 2]

Birthday party's over

The coldest nights got colder

I screamed then cried until I fell asleep

But the truth is I need closure

Are you ever gonna hand it over?

Are you, are you, are you?

[Pre-Chorus]

I watched you give your all to everyone else but me

Will I be eighty-five and still question

[Chorus]

Why was loving me rocket science?

I'm not impossible, but you just weren't trying

If you saw me now, could you justify?

Would you say sorry, would you tell me why? Oh

Why was loving me rocket science

Science, science
