about

The Anti-Valentines day anthem we all needed. Being the rebound sucks, but the people who do it suck more.

lyrics

I’m not gonna be your rebound, rebound
I’m not here to boost your ego, ego
I’m not gonna lie here and cry myself to sleep
All over a person who was never mine to keep
I’m not gonna be your rebound…

Swiping left but with you I swiped right
Started chatting, we were up for half the night
I said you’re cute but you’re getting way too warm
Sending pics but I just wanna talk
You wanna gimme your number but I think I know your game
Is that your real name?
And if I dare to think that this is real….

I’m just gonna be a rebound, rebound
But I’m not here to boost your ego, ego
I’m not gonna lie here and cry myself to sleep
All over a person who was never mine to keep
Saying you’re over your ex now, ex now
You’re ready to move on to something new
But they’re all you ever talk about
When you’re here with me
Might think I wanna hear about it
But you’re boring me
I’m not gonna be your rebound….

I always let myself get comfortable and end up on my own
I get reeled in by the lies they tell, I’m desperate for love
Then I find out when it’s way too late my gut was right all along
I’m sick of all the games I have to play
The hard to get, then love letters
So now I’m trusting every turn where I went wrong
And you won’t get me while I feel this strong

‘Cos I’m not gonna be a rebound, rebound
I’m not here to boost your ego, ego
I’m not gonna lie here and cry myself to sleep
All over a person who was never mine to keep
I’m not gonna be your rebound….

Here we go again another cannon loose
Painted up with feelings from a fairy book
I’m not just sitting pretty waiting for your lies
I don’t care how I compare to your past life….
I’m not a stepping stone to find the one
And you won’t get me while I feel this strong…

‘Cos I will never be your rebound, rebound
I’m not here to boost your ego, ego
I’m not gonna lie here and cry myself to sleep
All over a person who was never mine to keep
Saying you’re over your ex now, ex now
You’re ready to move on to something new
But they’re all you ever talk about
When you’re here with me
Might think I wanna hear about it
But you’re boring me

I’m not gonna be your rebound
I’m not gonna be your rebound
I’m not gonna be your rebound
Oh, oh

I’m not gonna be your rebound
I’m not gonna be your rebound
I’m not gonna be your rebound
Oh, oh

I’m not gonna be your rebound
I’m not gonna be your rebound
I will never be your rebound
No, oh
