Funny story about this song. I wrote it when there was that tik-tok trend going around where people tried to confess their love to their best friend. I thought that it'd be fun to write a serious song about a silly trend and this is the result!

lyrics

I don’t think
We should be
trying to be something
more than friends
It might be less boring
But at what cost

Maybe we’d fall in love
Grow up and get a dog
Raise a kid fight and split
Make it up and love again
But what if not
What if instead we lose it all

I know I shouldn’t put stock in the words
That I heard in my head when we’d lay in my bed
And the voices would say all the shit in the way of our
love and relationship
love fades away and it
Hurts
But maybe that’s the point
To learn
What’s worthy of a sacrifice
Of course
I’d say you
But of course
I wouldn’t tell the truth

Take what I say with a grain of salt
They’re not worth their weight in the gold that I’ve lost
I’m not quite as serious as I claim to be
Crack a smile make em laugh that goes down easily
