Verse 1 Why you acting like we never had a thing? Now you walk right past me like you don't know me You look away, then you're looking back Tell me, baby, why you gotta act like that? You say you don't care, okay, that's cool But your eyes keep breaking every single rule Your friends don't know, but I know your type You can say whatever, but I see the signs Pre-Chorus And I hate it, hate it, hate it How you make me second-guess I hate it, hate it, hate it When you act like I'm obsessed You call us nothing, like it's easy But you're the one who can't forget Chorus I hate it, hate it, hate it When you say we're just strangers I hate it, hate it, hate it Like we never knew each other You say, “We're friends,” like I'm supposed to be okay Then you look at me and give yourself away I hate it, hate it, hate it We're just strangers, right? Verse 2 Left me on read, but you watched my story Funny how you don't care when nobody's looking You act so cold, then you smile at me Boy, make up your mind, what is this supposed to be? Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm not Maybe you forgot everything we got But if I'm nobody, tell me why You always find a reason to be nearby? Pre-Chorus And I hate it, hate it, hate it How you make it so confusing I hate it, hate it, hate it All the games that you keep choosing You call me nothing, call me crazy But you know exactly what you're doing Chorus I hate it, hate it, hate it When you say we're just strangers I hate it, hate it, hate it Like we never knew each other You say, “We're friends,” like I'm supposed to be okay Then you look at me and give yourself away I hate it, hate it, hate it We're just strangers, right? Bridge Strangers don't know your favorite song Strangers don't notice when something's wrong Strangers don't stare from across the room Then pretend they weren't looking when I look at you So go ahead, say we're nothing tonight I'll play along, yeah, I'll be alright But if we're strangers, answer me this— Why does goodbye still feel like this? Final Chorus I hate it, hate it, hate it Yeah, I'm tired of the danger Of pretending that I don't remember Every little thing about you You say, “We're friends,” but I know that's not right 'Cause strangers don't look at each other like that all night I hate it, hate it, hate it— We're just strangers, right? Outro Strangers, strangers, right? That's what you wanna call it tonight Strangers, strangers, right? Then why can't you look away?
