Come to me with stories,
Ignoring the mirror beside your head.
Diffuse the reflection.
It's coming up again.
Such a strain to be friends.
I'd be better off alone.
We try to force it,
but it's an uphill road
And I'd be better off,
I'd be better off alone.
Passive aggressive -
You're so damn depressing
when you smile through your gritted teeth.
Make sure I get the message.
Passive aggressive -
You're so fucking depressing
when you talk and I act like I'm interested.
It's coming up again.
Such a strain to be friends.
I'd be better off alone.
We try to force it,
but it's an uphill road
And I'd be better off,
I'd be better off alone.
It's been the best two months
and I am getting by.
Haven't thought about you once,
I haven't had to try.
You come to me, ignoring.
It seems as if the worlds revolving
around your head.
Can you teach me how to tear the world in two?
You pull everything apart,
'til nothing's left to lose.
It's coming up again.
Such a strain to be friends.
I'd be better off alone.
We try to force it,
but it's an uphill road
And I'd be better off,
I'd be better off alone
