Friends With Benefits
Navigating Love's Gray Area: Mix Chopin's 'Friends With Benefits' Revelations
Lyrics
I wanna know if I can make you feel
I want to understand if I can evoke emotions in you
Like I do whats the deal
I wonder about the situation, what's the deal?
Been hanging out a while but whats the world
We've been spending time together, but what does the world think?
A'int trying to get hurt while you're thinking about her
I don't want to get hurt while you're still thinking about someone else
Lets heat this up before it starts to burn
Let's intensify this relationship before it becomes painful
You, yea you, you gon' learn
Referring to the person, emphasizing they will learn something
You can lie to you but you cant lie to me
You can deceive yourself, but you can't deceive me
No, no
No, emphatic denial
Don't try it with me
Don't attempt to deceive or manipulate me
Don't try it with me
Reiteration of not wanting deception
Baby we can party yea that's fine
We can engage in social activities, but...
But you been keeping me all this time
You've been keeping me around without commitment
If you knew that all the way back then
If you knew the truth from the beginning
You should of told me i was just a friend
You should have informed me that I was just a friend
You should of said
You should have communicated
We're just friends
Explicitly stating that the relationship is just friendship
We're just friends
Reiteration that they are just friends
Baby its no secret
Emphasizing that the situation is not a secret
You don't wanna see it
You don't want to acknowledge or confront the truth
Don't wanna catch no feeling
Not willing to develop deeper emotions
Don't wanna be tied down and I know it now
Not interested in commitment, realizing it now
So that's keep it this way
Let's maintain the current status, no changes
All things fade away
Everything eventually fades away
We said that we wouldn't do this thing again
We agreed not to repeat this situation
Just friends ain't working
Being just friends is not working
I cant pretend
Unable to pretend anymore
That we're just friends
We are not just friends
You should of said
Repeating the idea that communication about being friends should have happened
Were just friends
Emphasizing again that they are just friends
Were just friends
Reiteration that the relationship is only friendship
