lyrics

she said there's too many songs about the friend zone, and not enough songs about what it's like turning down yr song-writing friends.

well I'd be lying if I said I wasn't slightly disappointed that this meant we'd never marry but oh, he seems like such a good kid, in a scene where you needed it.

she said there's too many songs about the friend zone, and not enough songs about turning down yr friends. too many songs about the friend zone makes it sound like he's owed. Makes her feel like she's owned. 1,2,3 is a god damn pattern. 1, just circumstance. 2, a coincidence. 3 is a god damn pattern.

she still calls me when she's passing thru my city, she's been touring for years. We talk about our mutual, terrible friends then she disappears.

saying there's too many songs about the friend zone, and not enough songs about turning down yr friends. too many songs about the friend zone makes it sound like he's owed. Makes her feel like she's owned.

1, just circumstance. 2, a coincidence. 3 is a god damn pattern.
