Lyrics

Thought I heard your name around a party last week

Heard about you at a recent party

When I stepped outside, ran into you're friends

Encountered your friends when I went outside

They said you found Jesus and a boy who talks sweet

Learned you found religious faith and a sweet-talking boy

That you moved upstate, tying up loose ends

Noted you moved away to settle things


Lately, I catch myself thinking of you

Reflecting on thoughts of you lately

Then I remember I don't care

Realizing I don't care despite the thoughts


I've been losing sleep

Experiencing sleepless nights

I got in too deep but now that it's over

Got too involved but acknowledging it's over

I guess I'm better alone

Concluding that being alone is better


We don't feel the same

Not sharing the same feelings

I've been ripping pages out of the story

Tearing pages from the shared story

I guess I don't wanna know

Choosing ignorance over knowing


Took a couple months to get your smell off my sheets

Took time to remove your scent from my sheets

Yeah but honestly I kinda miss it

Admitting a certain nostalgia despite moving on


Blame loose lips for cover blown

Attributing the exposure of secrets to gossip

See your face on my phone

Seeing your face on my phone

Waste a half an hour or two

Wasting time reminiscing for a while


Lately, I catch myself thinking of you

Thinking of you again recently

Then I remember I don't care

Reminding myself that I don't care


I've been losing sleep

Struggling with sleepless nights

I got in too deep but now that it's over

Acknowledging getting too involved, but accepting the end

I guess I'm better alone

Deciding that being alone is preferable


We don't feel the same

Highlighting the lack of mutual feelings

I've been ripping pages out of the story

Removing parts of the shared story

I guess I don't wanna know

Opting for ignorance over knowledge
