Met your new girl at Johnny's party

I had to smile and say: What up?

Then I ran my ass to the bathroom

So I could cry about old love

I came back in with makeup smudged up

You caught me wipe it quick low-key

And then you got this weak-ass smile up on your face

As if to say you're sorry, it couldn't be me

Wish I could be your friend

And not hurt so bad

Wish I could be your friend

And not hurt so bad, yeah

I search the room looking for solace

You know whiskey always helps me

Then we lock eyes when I start pouring

Obviously, I'm not doing well

But we can't talk 'cause it ain't appropriate

And she knows exactly who I am

She pulls you close and tells you maybe y'all should go

And then she smiles at me, she smiles because she can

Wish I could be your friend

And not hurt so bad

Wish I could be your friend

And not hurt, hurt so bad

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah

So bad, baby, oh, so bad

So bad, so bad, so bad, so bad

So bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad

I wish it didn't hurt so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad

You wanna know when you finally get better

You get better when you finally fucking tired of being sad

I'm sure that I'm the villain in somebody else's story

But this ain't their fuckin' song now, is it?

And I'm sure that someone out there thinks that I should say I'm sorry

But what they think really ain't my business

And I miss the old me who never gave a shit

They say ignorance is bliss and now I get it

The years, they gave me wisdom, but they gave me headaches too

And now I know better than to argue with a fool

So I stay quiet

I stay quiet

I heard my old lover still be talkin' shit about me

But that sound like it's their new boo's problem

And even if they said it to my face, I think I'd smile

'Cause I learned peace of mind is all I wanted

Finally growing, cost me quite a bit

They say ignorance is bliss and now I get it

The years they gave me wisdom, but they gave me heartaches too

And now I know better than to argue with a fool

So I stay quiet

I stay quiet

I stay quiet

I stay quiet
