Better Off Friends

Yeah, let me hear you say
Oh
Mm
Okay

This is what you call love? I fell for what you said
Caught up, don't bother me
I gotta put a wall up, just call it what it is
Maybe we'll be better off friends instead
This is what you call love? I fell for what you said
Caught up, don't bother me
I gotta put a wall up, just call it what it is
Maybe we'll be better off friends instead

What happened to second chances, you don't believe in 'em?
I thought a true confession would put some ease in ya
Be reasonable with mе (Uh-huh), easy for you to leave
It's hardеr to put the pieces together
Cold game, I keep picturing you sleep in my sweater (Oh)
I was stepping up to ******* that wasn't reaching your level
Swimming deep with the devil, still, I was treating you special
Never brought it back home, had to keep it professional, uh
I could admit, I never wished it was like this, but it is now (Okay)
It's making sense how back then (Oh), was all in
We on the fence now (Mm)
Thought an angel was sent down, but this ain't what you call love

This is what you call love? I fell for what you said
Caught up, don't bother me
I gotta put a wall up, just call it what it is
Maybe we'll be better off friends instead
This is what you call love? I fell for what you said
Caught up, don't bother me
I gotta put a wall up, just call it what it is
Maybe we'll be better off friends instead

Reminiscing on what it could've been (Could've been)
But I couldn't put up with this again
A win is a win (Win), we dodging a bullet (Bullet)
You say you triggered, but you didn't expect me to pull it
Movies in the phone, I'm left with the footage (Yeah)
Them memories gone, that's the best way to put it (Mm, yeah)
I gotta deal with myself
Wounded, tell me, how do I heal without help?
Ion know, what's ups without downs?
The path ain't perfect to suits and white gowns, yeah
I know I chose the lifestyle
I'ma get it right, I'm just wrong for right now

This is what you call love? I fell for what you said
Caught up, don't bother me (Don't bother me at all)
I gotta put a wall up, just call it what it is
Maybe (Maybe) we'll be better off friends instead
This is what you call love? I fell for what you said
Caught up, don't bother me
I gotta put a wall up, just call it what it is
Maybe we'll be better off friends instead

I'm on my way to you right now
Like what's the problem?
What is it really about though?
You weird
'Cause I bought a chain?
Wedding ring
I'm disrespectful?
Maybe we better off friends
I love you, but it's always somethin' with you
