"What?!" Alexa asks.

Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh

"You said you wouldn't get mad." I say.

Even though you might get mad at me, oh, oh

"Yeah, well my fiancée just told me she's going to film a movie in New York and is leaving tomorrow." Alexa says.

"This can't be happening." Alexa says.

Sometimes it's hard to face reality

"You said you were going to start thinking about me when you make these choices." Alexa says.

Should've been adjusted to my life

"Do you even need to film another movie? You said you were just going to relax for a little 3 months ago. You have the opportunity to literally spend the rest of your life with me and you chose a gig over me." She says.

Had the opportunity to stay away for the last time

"You lied to me." She says.

Now you're standin' right in front of me

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings." I say.

It hurts me to know that I lied

Tryna protect your feelings

"Do you not want to marry me anymore? Is that why you're doing this?" She asks.

"You're reading in between the lines when there's only one line." I say.

You read in between the lines

"Baby, I love you. I love how you make coffee and get another cup because you let the first cup get cold. I love how you scream at me then expect me to cuddle with you. I love how you steal my phone to play games when you play them on your own." I say.

"I love how you make me smile when I feel like shit. I love how you get jealous over a kissing scene. I love how you try to protect me even when I don't need to be. I love you, in general." I say.

"I won't do anything else until we get married and come back to Hawaii. This is it. I swear to God." I say.

I hear thunder and Alexa stares at me.

"Not even God believes your ass." Alexa says laughing.

I laugh and she smiles.

"I get it, just do what you gotta do." Alexa says.

Hope your heart has started healing, woah, oh

I smile and hug her.

Time Skip

"I can't believe that I've been away from Alexa numerous times and it never gets easier." I say.

Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh

"How'd Alexa take it when you told her?" Micheal asks.

"She wasn't happy at first." I say.

Even though you might get mad at me, oh, oh

"She came to terms with it though." I say.

Sometimes it's hard to face reality

Don't be afraid to stand alone

Don't be afraid to stand outside your comfort zone

"I just miss her so much whenever I'm gone." I say.

I know it's hard away from home

"Think about all this money you're making." Micheal says.

"All this money isn't worth what is basically a long distance relationship." I say.

And it ain't easy all alone

Relationships over the phone

2 hours later...

"How was your first show?" Alexa asks.

Talkin' to your significant other all night long

"Okay, I guess." I say.

"I miss you. I don't want to see you through a screen." I say.

Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh

Alexa nods and we both sigh.

"I'm still a little mad at you." Alexa says.

Even though you might get mad at me, oh, oh

"You should, you have every right to." I say.

Sometimes it's hard to face reality

Sometimes it's hard to face reality

"I shouldn't have kept it a secret. Had I talked to you, I would've know to stay and this wouldn't be happening. I brought this in myself." I say.

Reality is kinda hard to face

Like actual facts is for flat-earthers

"Mistakes and bad moments are the reason most relationships thrive. Flowers can't grow without rain. You can't marry someone and spend the rest of your lifts with them without having those moments." Alexa says.

Rain's a requirement for flowers to grow

And pain's a requirement for power to grow

"I'm mad but it's life. We can't change that. The only thing we can change is the future, you can start doing that now." Alexa says.

"It's crazy because hours before I told you about this I was so sure. When I finally told you, hours later, I wasn't sure." I say.

It's a miracle how one can change

From one what was just hours ago

"Yeah, you do that all the time." She says.

Such is life though, it's just a cycle

"What?" I ask.

"You think about it a little then realize how dumb you are a few minutes later. You do a lot of stupid shit, I just see the bigger picture. The bigger picture being the sex." She says.

The bigger picture and the smaller picture

Are exactly the same, it's macro, micro

"Like fly back to California and fuck me." She says.

I laugh and she smiles.

"I'm serious." She says.

"I have never seen this side before." I say.

Crack your atom and let your light glow

"Better now than never." She says.

"Anyways." I say.

"Making mistakes is a part of life. That's one of the dozens of things we can change." Alexa says.

It's human nature, just like he told us

Let's face reality, crack the cycle

I sigh and nod.

Know it hurts to see the truth in your face

"Relax and get some rest. I love you." Alexa says.

"I love you too." I say.

Alexa smiles and hangs up.

I miss her too much, I have no choice.

Circumstances bring you down to your knees

"Hey, Siri. Find flights from Manhattan to Los Angeles." I say.

Time Skip

I walk upstairs and go to the bedroom. I go inside and turn the lamp on.

"Baby." I say.

Alexa opens her eyes and smiles.

"You came home." Alexa says sitting up.

I smile and she hugs me.

"They'll film all the other scenes and go back for a week for my scenes." I say.

"No show or movie and the check I get, will never be more important than you. I'm sorry that it took me a while to understand that." I say as tears fill her eyes.

"Don't cry, you're gonna make me cry." I say wiping Alexa's tears.

Go on and cry an ocean, but don't drown in it

"I love you so much." Alexa says.

Enough to put your heart at ease

"I love you too." I say.

Time Skip

"Remember how I said that I had low self-esteem?" Alexa asks.

Oh, don't lose your self-esteem

"Yeah." I say.

"Not anymore. Ever since we started dating, I've felt nothing but confidence." Alexa says.

"Anyone can do that." I say.

It's way harder than what it seems

"Nope." Alexa says.

Sometimes it's hard to face reality, oh, oh (reality)

"So thank you for that and everything else." Alexa says.

Even though you might get mad at me, oh, oh

I smile and she kisses me.

(you might get mad at me, but I'll be at your bedside)

"I love you." I say.

Sometimes it's hard to face reality

"I love you too." Alexa says.
