about
I wrote this song about two years ago after a bad breakup. things have smoothed over now, but I finally felt good enough about everything to release it. enjoy.
lyrics
You’re a prisoner of your own fear
Fit your wrists through the chainlink fence
No more shoulders left for you to cry on
Talk in circles till you don’t make sense
All I wanted was for you to try
All I got were excuses why you couldn’t
Back to square one again
Oh, we’re better off as friends
Yeah, we’re better off as friends
Maybe next time
All this time I thought we had it down
All those times I came to your defense
In the end, you chose your comfort over me
Now I’m thinking, was it time well spent?
All I wanted was for you to try
All I got were excuses why you shouldn’t
Back to square one again
Oh, we’re better off as friends
Yeah, we’re better off as friends
Maybe next time
Back to square one again
Oh, we’re better off as friends
Yeah, we’re better off as friends
Maybe next time
And I know, I know you didn’t mean to
But still, that doesn’t make it right
And I know, I know it’s really hard to do
But for your own sake, put up a fight
All I wanted was for you to try
All I got were excuses why you wouldn’t
Back to square one again
Oh, we’re better off as friends
Yeah, we’re better off as friends
Maybe next time
Back to square one again
Oh, we’re better off as friends
Yeah, we’re better off as friends
Maybe next time
