He sees the perfect in the imperfect. She rages all night yet manages to wake up early. And this continued recycling of energy, though depleting, reveals a near superpower in his eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Quick drag, a rouged cheek, a blush lip,<br>Eyeliner in her waterline and some contour on her t*ts.<br>Night owl and somehow an early bird,<br>She kinda just stays perpetually tired<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spellbound to a point beyond poetry, Sivan sings, in a detached exhale, \u201cwow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>That girl, that girl<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, she rooms with her best friend, and they occasionally share a boy. A collage displaying her potential gives her hope. And this blueprint of the future reminds her to let go of the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Share house, her housemate\u2019s her best friend,<br>Sometimes they might share her boyfriend, hell yeah.<br>Mood boards her future, it looks good,<br>She\u2019s done looking back, she\u2019s only looking ahead.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, for fun, she scraps online with a bitter celibate who stays hostile to everyone else out there getting laid.<em><br><br>Pretty, funny, can fight,<br>She always knew she had something special inside.<br>She takes down an incel on the internet,<br>When she needs just a little unwind<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Surprise Guest<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.songfacts.com\/articles\/the-meaning-behind-sympathy-is-a-knife-by-charli-xcx\/\">Charli XCX<\/a> joins Sivan\u2019s celebration and sings the outro hook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>She\u2019s the heartbeat bumping in my chest,<br>She\u2019s the best<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Charli\u2019s husband (and drummer for The 1975) George Daniel co-wrote and produced \u201cShe\u2019s The Best\u201d with Sivan, Jack Antonoff, Leland, and Styalz Fuego.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Returning to Sivan\u2019s seemingly random use of anecdotes, the cloudy production and his deadpan delivery come across like he\u2019s explaining the events as they\u2019re happening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes you just have to be there.
