Why Can't We Just Be Friends?

You’ve been hanging out with masochists,

But you don’t believe a word from my lips,

You swim with rumours, get in bed with lies,

You use a hangover as bad disguise,

See I’ve been thinking back on you and I,

So many memories but you chose goodbye.

I had nothing to do with it,

Why can’t we just quit it?

Why can’t we just be friends?

I saw pictures on your wall,

They told me the whole story,

Why can’t we just quit it?

Why can’t we just be friends?

I can almost see the dotted line,

And I’m just waiting here for you to sign,

You’ve got me in a hold, under arrest,

Am I the only one who cares for this?

If I could tell you just a simple thing,

I’ve seen too many lovers die like this.

I had nothing to do with it,

Why can’t we just quit it?

Why can’t we just be friends?

I saw pictures on your wall,

They told me the whole story,

Why can’t we just quit it?

Why can’t we just be friends?

I can’t stop, I can’t stop feeling this way,

I can’t stop, I can’t stop feeling.

I’ve been fighting with my heart and mind,

Replayed our scene over a thousand times,

I know it’s crazy but I can’t stop feeling this way.

I can’t stop, I can’t stop feeling this way,

I can’t stop, I can’t stop feeling.

You know that I had nothing to do with it,

Why can’t we just quit it?

Why can’t we just be friends?

(Can’t we just be friends?)

I saw pictures on your wall,

They told me the whole story,

Why can’t we just quit it?

Why can’t we just be friends?

If it hurts tell me it hurts,

If you’re scared tell me you’re scared,

I’ve got stitches over stitches and I’m running out of was to fix this.

I can’t stop, I can’t stop feeling this way,

I can’t stop, I can’t stop feeling.
