break up with a friend

I hung up the phone and I told you
I'm comin' over
But you don't know why
I sit in my car for a minute
Look through our pictures
And try not to cry

'Cause I know what I gotta do
No, but I don't got a clue how

'Cause, what the hell is it that I'm supposed to say?
Do I save the burnin' bridge or just walk away?
I know that sometimes
Good things have to end
But nobody tells you
How to break up with a friend

I can't say, "Let's see other people"
Or, "I don't see a future"
No, it don't work like that
But it sure as hell doesn't make sense
To say, "Let's stay friends"
'Cause there's no going back

I know it's all for the best
I just wanna make it hurt less

'Cause, what the hell is it that I'm supposed to say?
Do I save the burnin' bridge or just walk away?
I know that sometimes
Good things have to end
But nobody tells you
How to break up with a friend

So what the hell is it that I'm supposed to say?
Do I save the burnin' bridge or just walk away?
I know that sometimes
Good things have to end
But nobody tells you
How to break up with a friend

I close my eyes and I take a deep breath
Send you a text
That says, "Hey, I'm outside"
