Verse 1
They're hiking cliffs, posing in Dubai,
But can't hold a convo — and I don't know why.
Glam shots and filters, a picture-perfect love,
Just want something simple — why's that so tough?
Chorus
Online dating sucks — swipe left on the illusion,
Profiles polished, hiding all their confusion,
Every pic a mask, every match a test,
Just give me something real — flunk all the rest.
Online dating sucks — scrolling through the fakes,
Looking for love in a world full of snakes.
I’m just trying to talk, feel something real,
Open up a thread — maybe let my mind heal.
Verse 2
Click the app, cast the line, how hard could it be?
I’ve got the time, thought it’d come easily.
But every profile screams look what I’ve done,
Gym shots, sunsets, always on the run.
Verse 3
Dig beneath the gloss, try to find the soul,
But it crumbles when it’s real — nobody holds control.
Thought it’d be simple — log in, swipe, match,
But it’s smoke and mirrors, a clickbait trap.
Chorus
Online dating sucks — swipe left on the illusion,
Profiles polished, hiding all their confusion.
Every pic a mask, every match a test,
Just give me something real — flunk all the rest.
Online dating sucks — scrolling through the fakes,
Looking for love in a world full of snakes.
Last night I swiped like the world was mine,
Thought I found gold — ghosted by design.
Verse 4
Inbox empty, just echoes in the air,
Were they even real? Did they ever care?
Maybe just thoughts keeping me in the game,
Boost for more likes — it’s all the same.
Verse 5
Feeding the machine, chasing a hit,
Like a slot spin heartbreak — ain’t that some shit.
Chorus (Reprise)
Online dating sucks — swipe left on the illusion,
Profiles polished, hiding all their confusion.
Every pic a mask, every match a test,
Just give me something real — flunk all the rest.
Online dating sucks — scrolling through the fakes,
Looking for love in a world full of snakes.
Bridge / Outro
I gave truth, I gave soul,
Showed the depth — but they lost control.
They say they want real, but they ghost when it shows,
I'm the one they fear — God only knows.
They're chasing pretty, I'm holding weight,
So tell me who's fake and who can't face fate.
Spin the wheel, baby — better luck next time,
Online dating sucks — but I'm still in my prime.
