evidence as to why i am the girl alex turner writes about

LOVE IS A LASERQUEST

Do you still feel younger than you thought you would by now? 
Or darling, have you started feeling old yet? im not old enough to relate to these ;-; lmao
Don't worry, I'm sure that you're still breaking hearts 
With the efficiency that only youth can harness i wouldnt call myself a heartbreaker, but as it turns out quite a few people like me or have done, and i have unintentionally broken hearts. i also dumped 2 guys and i dont think i broke their hearts but i mightve hmm anyway i keep going back to LS instead lmao

And do you still think love is a laserquest?  
Or do you take it all more seriously? these lines are asking if i think love is a game or not, and the answer is no. for me love is not a laserquest, but many people think i think it is. so i kinda feel this girl :((
I've tried to ask you this in some daydreams that I've had
But you're always busy being make-believe both LS and i fantasise a lot, dreaming up scenarios of us. there have been times ive tried to ask him things, but my version of him never knows how to answer. i wonder if he does the same...

edit: found out he does

And do you look into the mirror to remind yourself you're there? sometimes dude, you feel existential crisis-y, and i often dont recognise myself in the mirror, especially if im not wearing makeup
Or have somebody's goodnight kisses got that covered? i wonder often if LS is finding other nighttime company and not telling me, and he knows im trying to (although lockdown makes hoe life hard) so this is something weve both wondered, i believe
When I'm not being honest, I pretend that you were just some lover sometimes i like to pretend LS was just a fling, someone i never believed id have a future with, but the truth is i wished - i believed even - that we could have a future and a happy life together. alas that is not the case but its nice to pretend. its also nice to pretend nothing happened lmao

Now I can't think of there without thinking of you theres SO MANY THINGS i cant do without thinking of him (and crying, usually) like,,,, man leave my fucking music alone, i cant breathe without going omg remember when we kissed and he was breathing heavily??? or eat noodles or im like omg remember cuddles-???  im like sir u have taken over my life
I doubt that comes as a surprise 
And I can't think of anything to dream about i dream about him nearly every night AGH I HATE ADMITTING THAT
I can't find anywhere to hide

And when I'm hanging on by the rings around my eyes  i lose sleep over him, as i often find myself crying over him (pATHETIC) or writing songs about him (LS album dropping when i finish it) and so yes i have rings around my eyes
And I convince myself I need another drink drink drink
And for a minute it gets easy to pretend that you were just some lover :( with every day its less likely well get back together, and it hurts, but its getting easier to acceptWhen I'm pipe and slippers and rocking chair

Singing dreadful songs about summer
Will I have found a better method
Of pretending you were just some lover?
Will I have found a better method
Of pretending you were just some lover? well never find a better way than singing dreadful songs honestly
