like everyone else
Zeph Lyrics

I wish I was special
I desire to be unique and significant to you

Wish I had your full attention
I long for your undivided focus and interest

Wish you didn't even notice the other girls in your mentions
I hope you wouldn't pay attention to or be attracted to other girls

I wish I was your crush, but without all of the tension
I want to be your object of affection without any complications or stress

I wish I just made you happier, your platonic obsession
I aspire to bring more joy into your life and be your strong friendship bond

Come to me, I'll be your best friend
Approach me, and I'll provide you with unwavering companionship

I think that we are meant to happen
I believe our connection is destined and meant to occur

You're way too nice, does that mean something?
Your exceptional kindness, does it signify something deeper?

I know you're always nice, so why am I blushing?
I'm aware of your constant kindness, so why does it still make me feel embarrassed and flushed?

Why can't I be the only one you need?
Why am I not sufficient as the only person you rely on emotionally?

Tell me your secrets, all of them I'll keep
Confide in me with your deepest secrets, I promise to guard them faithfully

I wish I could have you all to myself
I desire exclusive ownership of your affections and presence

Yeah, I like you, but not the way you like everyone else
Indeed, I have affection for you, but it differs from the way you feel about others

Wish I was your favorite
I yearn to be your preferred and cherished choice

I wish I stood out of the crowd
I aspire to be distinctive and prominent among others in your eyes

Wish when you'd get tired of everyone else, you'd still want me around
I hope that even when you grow weary of others, you'd still desire my presence

But it just felt so extra
Yet, it seemed excessive and unnecessary

It doesn't have to be exclusive
Our connection doesn't require exclusivity

It'd be cool to tell them, they'd never have half of what me and you did
It would be satisfying to inform others that they will never experience even a fraction of what we shared

You know I like you, don't tell me it's nothing
You are aware of my feelings towards you, please don't dismiss them as insignificant

I don't want to be your only unless you decide you want me
I prefer not being your sole focus unless you genuinely desire me to be

As long as I am the best thing, I am happy with in between
As long as I remain the most cherished part of your life, I am content with our current state

Why can't I be the only one you need?
Why am I not sufficient as the sole person you rely on emotionally?

Tell me your secrets (yeah, I like you)
Reveal your secrets to me (yes, I am fond of you)

All of them I'll keep (but not the way you like everyone else)
I will guard all of them closely (but my feelings for you are different from those towards others)

Yeah, I like you, but not the way you like everyone else
Indeed, I have affection for you, but it differs from the way you feel about others
