You called it off, but you didn't stop calling
I'm picking up like you never left
You say goodbye, just to say hi often
Nothing about it's making any sense

There you go, never leaving me alone
Filling my head with false hope
Did you come all this way, just to say

You wanna stay friends?
You wanna pretend
That you shut the door, the one you're keeping cracked
You don't wanna hold me, so you hold me back
And then you check in
To see where I've been
You come and find me just to remind me over again and again
You don't want me, you just wanna be friends

And you talk a lot, but you really say nothing
Asking about how the weather's been
But I got questions
Can you say something
How after three years can you just quit?

Maybe you're nervous
I'll find a purpose
Other than you, with someone who deserves it
Then you'll be hurting, just like I'm hurting
Babe, you'll wish you didn't say

You wanna stay friends?
You wanna pretend
That you shut the door, the one you're keeping cracked
You don't wanna hold me, so you hold me back
And then you check in
To see where I've been
You come and find me just to remind me over again and again
You don't want me, you just wanna be friends

You don't want me, you just wanna be friends

You wanna stay friends?
You wanna pretend
That you shut the door, the one you're keeping cracked
You don't wanna hold me, so you hold me back
And then you check in
To see where I've been
You come and find me just to remind me over again and again
You don't want me, you just wanna be friends

But I don't wanna be friends
