You keep tellin’ me we’re just friends…

You keep tellin’ me we’re just friends… But it don’t feel like that when it’s 2 a.m. Late night, phone glow, your name on my screen, You only ever call me when you’re hurt in between. Talk about the dude who never treats you right, I’m playin’ therapist again in the middle of the night. You laugh at my jokes, say I know you the best, Say I’m the only one who really understands your head. You lay it all on me, then say “we’re just friends,” I say “yeah, it’s cool,” but I’m breakin’ again. Pre‑Chorus (build the tension) ‘Cause every time you say it, I feel that cut a little deeper, I’m the one who stays, while he just leaves you weaker. You say you don’t see it, but I’m right here in your eyes, Smilin’ through the pain while my feelings hide. Chorus (main hook – repeat this) You say we’re just friends, but you don’t act like it at 2 a.m., Cryin’ on my phone, talkin’ ‘bout him like I’m not him. You say we’re just friends, but you hold on like you’re scared to lose more, Call me when you’re lonely, leave me when your heart feels sure. You say we’re just friends, so why’s my chest hurt when you say his name? I play along, but every “just friends” cuts the same. Verse 2 (you start to wake up / pull back) I see you in the halls, you walk right past, But you blow up my phone when another thing cracks. You only send hearts when you’re feelin’ alone, Then leave me on read when you’re back in your zone. I’m tired of bein’ safe, tired of bein’ your “maybe,” Tired of bein’ plan B every time things get shaky. Got a heart full of words that I never press send, “I love you” in the drafts that I always delete again. Pre‑Chorus (slight variation) And every time you say it, I swear it echoes in my head, “We’re better off as friends,” is just the way you keep me on the edge. You don’t want to lose me, but you won’t let me in, So I’m stuck between your safety net and everything I feel within. Bridge (most honest moment – maybe beat drops here) If we’re just friends, then why you hold me like you need me? Why you text “I miss you” then say you didn’t mean it really? If we’re just friends, then why your mom know my name? Why your playlist full of songs that sound just like my pain? I don’t wanna be the “almost,” don’t wanna be your second choice, I’m done drownin’ in the silence every time I lose my voice. Final Chorus (repeat with a small twist) You say we’re just friends, but you don’t act like it at 2 a.m., Layin’ on your bed, tellin’ me secrets you don’t tell them. You say we’re just friends, but my heart don’t move like that, I can’t keep pretendin’ I’m okay with only half. You say we’re just friends, but I’ve been in love this whole time, If “just friends” all I get, then I might have to cut that line.
