lyrics

I am the friend that you never need
The skeleton that you forgot to feed
The person you call when the rest of the world is asleep
Is that fair enough to say?
You said it to my face
You'd only keep me around cause I might be something so
Stop hitting me up for favors
I'm still waiting for them to be returned
I guess that I shouldn't be concerned

If the words are just words then why am I scared?
If the people still talk then why should I care?
I'm still the one in control so I can't be scared
Say whatever you'd like but I am aware

That everybody's staring at me
Puzzled by their glances oh, I wonder if they see right through me?
I can't tell for sure but you are different
Are we on the same level?
You are stroking on my ego but
I know better
I like it when you act like we're still close
You do not know the context
You still gave me your two cents
I did not ask
I guess we can talk about it later

But the words are just words then why am I scared?
If the people still talk then why should I care?
I'm still the one in control so I can't be scared
Say whatever you'd like but I am aware

There's forty four conversations happening inside my head
I can't seem to quiet them, or shut them up even when I beg
You made me feel insecure again said it was my own doing
All the words just blend together
Makes me feel like blah blah blah ha ha ha ha

the words are just words so why am I scared?
If the people still talk then why should I care?
I'm still the one in control so I can't be scared
Say whatever you'd like but I am aware

the words are just words so why am I scared
the people still talk so why should I care
I'm still the one in control so I cant be scared
Say whatever you want but I am aware
