We Were Never Friends (Nachomergence).mp3

[Verse 1] We were never friends Don't call me your friend You know that's not what we were You asked me how to talk to her How to make her understand The little things that make you restless The things you never say out loud I almost laughed, but held it back Because you don't even see How strange it is you're asking me To teach you how to read you I know the pause before you're lying The smile you try to hide The way your voice gets softer When you're fighting what's inside I know when you're excited I know when you're angry I know exactly what that look means When you want me and I don't want you It's the part you need to understand But knowing you like I do Doesn't make me your friend [Chorus] We were never friends We were lovers in the dark You knew every inch of me I knew every hidden part So don't dress it up as something That it never really was I don't know what we are now But we were never friends No, we were never friends [Verse 2] I know what you taste like, for fuck's sake How could I forget I know the way your body moves Before you even make a step I know the little tells you make When you're trying not to show You're excited, you're afraid, you're burning up You're losing control And you still know how to push my buttons Still know exactly where they are Put us in the same room together And the silence gets too loud But that's not an invitation It's the reason I walked away Because chemistry isn't compatibility And history isn't a place to stay So I won't be the secret doorway That you leave unlocked at night I won't be the woman you come running to When something doesn't feel right [Chorus] We were never friends We were lovers in the dark You knew every inch of me I knew every hidden part So don't dress it up as something That it never really was I don't know what we are now But we were never friends No, we were never friends [Bridge] You know I know you, that's the problem You know I know you, that's why this has to end You were already dating her when we had that final talk You asked me for the answers like we were still the ones who knew And I listened when you asked me why I thought we'd never work You didn't fight me, you understood, god, that almost made it worse Because there was no betrayal, no screaming, no slammed door Just two people finally honest about what we'd been pretending for I wished you well, I meant it, and you said you'd like to keep me around How do you keep an old lover without keeping something alive? I won't answer just because you missed me I won't unblock just because you called We said everything we needed the last time we spoke And that's all [Chorus] We were never friends We were lovers once, there's things I know about you She shouldn't have to learn from us, and that's not jealousy talking That's the boundary we ignored I hope she makes you happy, I just don't need to know We were never friends [Outro] I don't hate you, I don't want you back Some memories still make me smile Some I'd rather never have I loved you, that's true And maybe some small part of me Will always know you better than I ever wanted to But love doesn't mean access History doesn't mean adore And sometimes the kindest thing Two people can do is stop asking for more So... but are we? I don't know And for once, I don't fucking care We were never friends We were something far too deep We were every secret whispered Every promise we couldn't keep And I'm not rewriting history Just because the story ends You were my lover, you were important You are not my friend I hope you find what you're looking for I really do Just don't look for it in me I really do Just don't look for it in me We said everything and we were never friends
