I didn’t think you’d understand me
How could you ever even try?
I don’t wanna tiptoe, but I don’t wanna hide
But I don’t wanna feed this monstrous fire
Just wanna let this story die, and I’ll be alright

We can’t be friends
But I’d like to just pretend
You cling to your papers and pens
Wait until you like me again

Wait for your love
Love, I’ll wait for your love
Me and my truth, we sit in silence
Baby girl, it’s just me and you

‘Cause I don’t wanna argue
But I don’t wanna bite
My tongue, yeah, I think I’d rather die
You got me misunderstood
But at least I look this good

We can’t be friends
But I’d like to just pretend
You cling to your papers and pens
Wait until you like me again

Wait for your love
Love, I’ll wait for your love
I’ll wait for your love
Love, I’ll wait for your love

Know that you made me
I don’t like how you paint me
Yet I’m still here hanging
Not what you made me
It’s something like a daydream
But I feel so seen in the night
So for now, it’s only me
And maybe that’s all I need

We can’t be friends
But I’d like to just pretend
You cling to your papers and pens
Wait until you like me again

Wait for your love
Love, I’ll wait for your love
I’ll wait for your love
Love, I’ll wait for your love

I’ll wait for your love
I’ll wait for your love
I’ll wait for your love
I’ll wait for your love
I’ll wait for your love
