Story Behind The Song
This song, unfortunately, came about when I found out the guy I was really crazy about was dating another girl and had a bunch of others in the wings. He was a charmer and seduced the ladies left and right. I think it made him feel better about him self. Bad boys are so inviting!
Song Description
The girl is singing to the guy who has been playing her for a fool. She thought she was the only one but turns out he's got a lot of other girls he's playing. The guy is really insecure and needs validation by getting lots of girls to like him.

Lyrics
Hey there, sad boy
Looking like you lost a friend
Looking like the world?s about to end
You said all the things a girl like me would want to hear
You said I didn?t have a thing to fear ? no fear you said
You?re lonely
You?re empty
You need me to fill you up
Hey now, I?m in
Looks to me like we begin
Feels to me like I?m the one you?ve come to love
But who is she over there who seems to care
Every time you?re touching me the way you?re touching me
I?m waiting
I?m needing
Can you give her up?
There?s so many
You can?t decide
We?re all so pretty
Standing in line to fill you up
You?re lonely
You?re empty
You need me to fill you up
You?re lonely
You?re empty
And maybe
You need me
But baby
I?m saving myself
