Lyrics
And she said, "you are my best friend"
The speaker's best friend, a female, affirms their close friendship.
But she won't understand that I had bigger plans
The friend may not comprehend the speaker's grander aspirations.
The though of not being intimate
The idea of not being physically close is distressing to the speaker.
Is just making me sick
The absence of intimacy makes the speaker feel unwell.
Especially when he's around and telling you
Another person, possibly a romantic rival, praises the friend's beauty.
"You're beautiful"
The speaker wishes to be the one complimenting the friend.
I wish that it was me instead
Expressing a desire to replace the current person in the friend's life.
Pulling out your chair, telling you I care
Yearning to be the one showing care and consideration to the friend.
Tell me girl honestly
The speaker seeks honesty from the friend.
Is that guy your everything?
Asking if the other person is the friend's everything.
Or do I just overthink?
The speaker questions if their thoughts are excessive.
Everything, everything about you
The speaker obsesses over every aspect of the friend.
And I hope you crash your car
An intense wish for an unfortunate event, potentially expressing frustration.
Nevermind I'm not that harsh
Quickly retracting the harsh wish, indicating a softer sentiment.
I just hope you fall apart
Hoping for the friend's emotional breakdown in a less severe manner.
In the same way
Desiring a similar emotional turmoil as the speaker experiences.
I never wanted to be (I never wanted to be)
Expressing a reluctance to be a certain role in the friend's life.
The boy at your wedding
Rejecting the idea of being the friend's wedding companion.
Watching you two dance for hours
Imagining watching the friend dance with someone else at the wedding.
While I drink alone (drink alone)
The speaker contemplates drinking alone in solitude.
I just had to say that you look good in your dress
Complimenting the friend's appearance in a specific context.
(You look good in your dress)
A parenthetical confirmation of the friend's attractiveness in a dress.
"Then say it"
A prompt for the friend to respond to the compliment.
Tell me girl honestly
Repetition of the request for honesty from the friend.
Is that guy your everything?
Repeating the question about the other person's significance.
Or do I just overthink?
Reflecting on whether the speaker's thoughts are excessive.
Everything, everything about you
The speaker's continuous preoccupation with every detail about the friend.
And I hope you crash your car
A repetition of the intense wish, but with a quick retraction.
Nevermind I'm not that harsh
A milder hope for the friend's emotional distress.
I just hope you fall apart
Expressing a desire for the friend's emotional breakdown in a softened way.
In the same way
Reiteration of the wish for a similar emotional turmoil as the speaker.
She said, "you are my best friend"
A repetition of the friend affirming their best friendship.
"You are my best friend"
A reaffirmation of the friend labeling the speaker as their best friend.
"You are my best friend"
Continued affirmation of the speaker being the best friend.
