1987A
Ten and Tracer Lyrics

When I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
In moments of solitude, I find myself lost in deep thought and contemplation.

And in the back of my mind I hear my conscience call
My inner voice reminds me of my values and desires.

Telling me I need a girl who's as sweet as a dove
My conscience urges me to seek a loving and kind-hearted partner.

For the first time in my life, I see I need love
I have come to realize that love is a missing element in my life's journey.

I don't know what happened
I am uncertain about the cause or reason behind my current situation.

But I know I need love
However, one thing I am certain about is that I crave love and affection.

All these years of my life
Throughout the course of my existence up until now

I never felt her touch
I have never experienced the gentle caress of a romantic partner.

Hear me out though!
But listen to me attentively!

I have wants but
I do have desires and aspirations, but

I need love like 1987
Love is a necessity in my life, just like it was in the year 1987.

Wake up and see her eyes
I eagerly want to open my eyes and witness the beauty of her gaze.

Like Fourth of July
Her eyes possess a sparkling and captivating brilliance, reminiscent of the fireworks on Independence Day.

Cupid, stop playing stupid
Oh, Cupid, cease your foolish games and manipulations.

Left me secluded
Your actions have caused me to feel isolated and alone.

In a puzzle of confusions
My mind is entangled in a complex web of uncertainty and perplexity.

I welcome bad conclusions
I find myself willingly accepting negative outcomes and interpretations.

Where our feelings turn abusive
In our emotional connection, our feelings often become damaging and toxic.

But never physical
Although the damage is not physical, it deeply affects me emotionally.

Always in my mental
These conflicts and struggles persist within the realm of my thoughts and emotions.

Lately my mental
Recently, my state of mind

It can't create space
Is unable to make room

For the idea of ever finding love, yeah
To entertain the notion of discovering true love

Just waste time to waste mine
I spend time aimlessly, without purpose or benefit to myself.

Downtime no FaceTime
During periods of relaxation, I lack meaningful communication or connections with others through video calls.

Our clothes on at bedtime
Even when we share intimate moments in bed, our physical closeness is not accompanied by emotional intimacy.

It's war time, it goes down
Our relationship has turned into a battleground, where conflicts and disagreements escalate.

I know that I'm probably wishing on a star babe
I am aware that my hopes and desires may be unrealistic or fantastical.

Every time I ask a girl for her number
Whenever I gather the courage to request a girl's contact information

She got a boyfriend
I discover that she is already in a committed relationship with another person.

Really too late
The timing is unfavorable or inappropriate.

Got damn it man
Expressing frustration or disappointment with the circumstances.

Do you not care where your arrows land
Cupid, are you oblivious to the consequences of your matchmaking actions?

Psyche can't see my face
The person I am interested in fails to recognize or notice my presence or affection.

Reality is in the way
The limitations and practicalities of everyday life hinder the development of a romantic relationship.

You should hear what my walls will say
If only the walls of my room could speak, they would reveal the harsh judgments and criticisms I impose upon myself.

That you're short
You lack physical height

That you're broke
You have limited financial resources

That you always eat top ramen
Your diet mainly consists of cheap instant noodles

And all you ever do is talk about how you should've been prophet
Your conversations primarily revolve around regret and unrealized potential

And you don't have tik tok
You are not part of the popular social media platform TikTok

So y'all may not have shit in common
Thus, we may have very few shared interests or traits

Promise I can be honest, modest
I assure you that I am capable of being sincere and humble

With a heart of profit
My intentions are driven by the desire for emotional and personal gain

Now we're all caught up
Now we find ourselves entangled in this complicated situation

Got damn it man
Expressing frustration or disappointment with the circumstances.

Got me all up in my feelings
It has deeply stirred my emotions and brought about intense sensitivity.

Now I'm all caught up
I am entangled and trapped within these complicated emotions and challenges.

Yo cupid stop playing stupid
Hey Cupid, cease your foolish games and manipulations.

Cupid stop playing stupid
Oh, Cupid, cease your foolish games and manipulations.

Do you not care where your arrows land
Cupid, are you oblivious to the consequences of your matchmaking actions?

Yo cupid stop playing stupid
Hey Cupid, cease your foolish games and manipulations.

Got me all caught up
I am entangled and trapped within these complicated emotions and challenges.

Got damn it man
Expressing frustration or disappointment with the circumstances.

I have wants
I possess desires and longings

But I need love like 1987
However, more than anything, I crave love akin to that experienced in the year 1987.

Wake up and see her eyes
I yearn to open my eyes and behold the captivating gaze of my beloved

Like Fourth of July
Similar to the vibrant and dazzling fireworks on the Fourth of July
