Haunted by these ghosts inside of my glass house
Pull me in, lead me on, let me down, and I wonder how
Was I dumb and naive to believe that you wanted me?
Can you tell me please?
Did you know at the time it was lies coming out your mouth when
You said I was beautiful?
That your emotions were available
Yeah, the long nights, long flights, you were feeling it
Then you promised that I wasn't an experiment
You said you've never done this before
Same breath said you want this for sure
So I said, "Can we go to bed?"
And you said, "Can we just be friends?"
It was words on the phone, now it's real, and you're not so bold
Pour a glass all alone, make a toast to a love gone cold (oh, so cold)
They say insanity is to do something
About a million times and hope it comes out differently
I guess that I'm insane
Are you entertained? 'Cause
You said I was beautiful
That your emotions were available
Yeah, the long nights, long flights, you were feeling it
Then you promised that I wasn't an experiment
You said you've never done this before
Same breath said you want this for sure
So I said, "Can we go to bed?"
And you said, "Can we just be friends?"
I know that I ain't perfect, but it's hurting
'Cause this ain't turning out the way it's supposed to be
Hardest pill that I've swallowed, leaves me hollow
'Cause I think we see each other differently
But
You said I was your everything
That you were done with her and wanted me
Yeah, your brown eyes, white lies had to ruin it
Thought you promised that I wasn't an experiment
Shoulda known I've been through this before
You fuck around and then you go back to her
I try my best, but I can't pretend that
After this, we could ever be friends (no, I don't wanna be friends)
No, I don't wanna be friends
I said I don't wanna be friends
