I Don't Wanna Be Your Friend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't wanna see your face
I don't wanna hear your name
I don't wanna a thing
Just stay away, baby
Don't wanna know if you're alright
Or what you're doing with your nights
Don't wanna hear you say that you're stay in touch
Maybe I'll get by just fine
And if you're going then darling
Goodbye, goodbye
Don't call me in the middle of the night no more
Don't expect me to be there
Don't think that it'll be that way it was before
Don't think that I'll care
I'm not over your yet
Don't wanna be your friend
I'll forget we ever met
I'll forget that I'll ever let
Ever let you into this heart of mine, baby
You just gotta let me be
Gotta keep away from me
'Cause all I want is just to be free from you
Baby, don't you come around
Don't say you're still care about me
Just go now, go now
