Real Friends (What A Joke)

[chicagolights]

My nails are painted the same color
This is four months ago on repeat
We can pick up these broken pieces
Make them whole and shatter them again
We can do this whole thing over
I’ll wear the dress and everything
I’ll be bare foot and dizzy
And you can kiss me

Oh but the lies have sunk into my skin
I’m starting to think again
Will I cry this time?
You aren’t even here
A memory was all it will ever be

My hair’s a little different
I wore it down this time
But my date still has no idea where I am
Turn this inside out
You always knew me better than anyone
Do you know how much
I miss you now?

Oh but the lies have sunk into my skin
I’m starting to think again
Will I cry this time?
You aren’t even here
A memory was all it will ever be

No one remembers how it happened
It was supposed to be a fuck you
It turned into a fuck me
This used to be so pretty
Who am I kidding?
This is us, the liars, the friends,
The no ones who became someones
But didn’t really want too
I’m so sick of you

Oh but the lies have sunk into my skin
I’m starting to think again
Will I cry this time?
You aren’t even here
A memory was all it will ever be
