Just Friends

Finite friendships that yield infinite possibilities
Being "friends with privileges" has surely made us enemies
And now,
Despite our pleasant memories
You and me,
We barely speak
Because not speaking makes it easier
AND
We're
Both playin' games with each other
Simply because we can
I mean,
What the hell is goin' on?

Don't call me singin' bullshit songs
Because those lyrics and those words
They don't right your wrongs
F*ck what Mariah says
I know where I belong..
And it's NOT with you!
You see,
It's taken me too damn long to get a clue
And although I see now what I need to do
I'd been
Soo wrapped up in my thoughts of you
That I could not let go

And its clear that my thoughts are contradictory
Because my Mouth says one thing,
But then my heart gets the best of me
Forcing me to live painfully
With the "What could have been" or would have been"
Had you and I been
Just Friends
And

I really can't complain
'Cuz some of my happiest moments
Were spent in your arms
And it's driving me insane
That when I see you
Qualms of homesickness overtake me
Sudden feelings of faintness that break me
Make me
Remember all over again
That we should have been Just Friends!

Then maybe it wouldn't have hurt so bad
When I saw you with her
I wouldn't have been so sad
So... MAD
So
Forced to reevaluate
What I THOUGHT we had
Because she
Took the place of me
And you and I fell apart almost instantaneously
And you say it's my fault
My jealousy
But how can you be sleepin' with HER
And then come home to me?!?

Some things just do not coincide
And to top that off
Brother you lied
About even seeing her
Comparin' me with her
You said you did not want to be with her
But...
Could not "get free from her"?!?
Man, WHATEVER

You see,
I wish I had never met you
I wish I could just
Wake up in the morning
And forget you
I wish I hadn't opened up my heart
And let you in
Or maybe,
Just maybe..
We should have been
JUST FRIENDS
And skipped the rest of that sh*t!
