Lyrics

I'm not a good friend, I'm not a friend at all

I acknowledge that I am not a good friend; in fact, I don't consider myself a friend at all.

It's never resolved, I'm nervous when you call

Issues or conflicts between us are never resolved, and I feel anxious when you reach out to me.

My words are limp, and my mind is dry

My communication is ineffective, and my thoughts are unproductive or uninspired.

I try to be polite, but I feel like I'm stuck for life

Despite attempting to be courteous, I feel trapped or stagnant in our interactions.

I follow my heart, it leads me far from you

I prioritize following my own desires, leading me away from you.

No matter how close we are, I'm far, far away

Regardless of our closeness, I emotionally feel distant and unreachable.

I have too much now to fill my day today

My life is currently filled with too much, leaving little space for our connection.

I'm not a good friend, I'm not a friend at all

Reiteration of not being a good friend, emphasizing the lack of friendship.

I don't need obligations to our crippled conversations

I don't want to be tied down by obligations in our strained conversations.

I'd never tell you, it's something you should know

There are things about me that I won't explicitly express, and you should be aware of them.

I'm not a friend at all, oh, please let me go

Emphatically stating again that I'm not a friend at all and expressing a desire to be released.

Somehow I don't trust you

Expressing a lack of trust in you.

I don't trust myself

Admitting a lack of trust in oneself.

And I may never forgive you

Indicating that forgiveness towards you may be challenging or impossible.

'cause I can't forgive myself

Linking the difficulty of forgiving oneself with the difficulty of forgiving you.

Somehow I don't trust you

Reiterating a lack of trust in you.

I don't trust myself

Reiterating a lack of trust in oneself.

And I may never forgive you

Repeating the idea that forgiveness towards you might be elusive.

'cause I can't forgive myself

Linking the challenge of forgiving oneself with the challenge of forgiving you.

Don't break my stride

Repeated plea or command not to disrupt or hinder the narrator's progress or momentum.

Don't break my stride

-

Don't break my stride

Don't break my stride
