lyrics

There was a time I loved you for always being right
Polka dot philosophies perfected over tea time
I gave away my secrets to get in your tiny house
You let me live there happily until you threw me out

Now I know when you say you love me
You don’t mean you love me
You just mean you like having me around
Now I know if I ever need you
What I really need to do is find some other friend

There was a time I loved you for making no excuse
Unapologetically a wild one on the loose
You just grab your guitar and hop a bus to New Orleans
Even in your absence you were so inspiring

Now I know when you say you love me
You don’t mean you love me
You just mean you like having me around
Now I know if I ever need you
What I really need to do is find some other friend

There was a time I loved you for being so adored
You had a harem full of men and women
To hang on and obey your every word
But you manipulate to get just what you want
And then grin like a guru of living in the moment

Well I’m sorry if I’m not charming enough today
To help your rainbow-sprinkled cupcake to go down with ease
But you tricked me and made me think it was safe
To share what’s underneath the pin up paper doll version of me
Now I won’t say you made me need you
But I’ll say that you tried
And then I needed you and you got so surprised saying
“Why does this always happen to me?”
Well if this is not first time, maybe it’s your fault not mine
Maybe it’s your fault not mine

Now I know when you say you love me
You don’t mean you love me
You just mean you like having me around
Now I know if I ever need you
What I really need to do is find some other friend
Who will not let me down
