Stay Friends

You called it off, but you didn't stop callin'
I'm pickin' up like you never left
You say goodbye just to say hi often
Nothin' about it's makin' any sense
There you go, never leavin' me alone
Fillin' my head with false hope
But did you come all this way just to say

You wanna stay friends?
You wanna pretend?
Then you shut the door, the one you're keepin' 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 nothin'
Askin' about how the weather's been
But I got questions, can you say somethin'?
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 hurtin' just like I'm hurtin'
Babe, you'll wish you didn't say

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

But I don't wanna be friends
