"romance is dead" lyrics

Romance is dead, but the fantasy of us lives on inside my head
And I'm trying not to give up
I'm so sick of putting effort in
On scumbags who don't give a shit
And I won't beg
Romance is

What happened to going out on dates?
Knockin' on my door with a bouquet
Everybody now is so fast paced
Our love is dyin'

What happened to kissing me goodnight?
Chivalry is gone, we lost the fight
I don't wanna keep wastin' my time
I'm so done tryin'

Please tell me why, my standard's high
I keep denying the truth

Romance is dead
But the fantasy of us lives on inside my head
And I'm trying not to give up
I'm so sick of putting effort in
On scumbags who don't give a shit
And I won't beg
Romance is, romance is dead

What happened to staying up real late?
Laughing on the phone at jokes we made
Now you leave me texts on read for days
Our love is dyin'

What happened to love through the mistakes?
Another heartbreak what a shame
It's all a fucked up mess we've made
I'm so done tryin'

Please tell me why, I've lost my mind
I keep denying the truth

Romance is dead
But the fantasy of us lives on inside my head
And I'm trying not to give up
I'm so sick of putting effort in
On scumbags who don't give a shit
And I won't beg
Romance is, romance is dead

I'm so done denyin'
Sick and tired of tryin'
Think I'd rather be alone

Waste my life believin'
Where's the love I'm needing?
Maybe I'll just never know

There's no happy ending
What's the point pretending?
Guess it's time to let it go

Romance is dead
But the fantasy of us lives on inside my head
And I'm trying not to give up

I'm so sick of putting effort in
On scumbags who don't give a shit
And I won't beg
Romance is, romance is dead

Romance is, romance is dead
