๐ Lyrics
I swear I wasn't always like this
I could handle anything
But lately, I feel like a stranger
Living in my own skin
And the older that I'm getting
The less I'm letting out
I can feel my heart screaming
But I never make a sound
And I don't know how much it is I can take
If only I could say what I'm thinking
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing
With nobody asking how I really am
Oh, I could use a friend
It took a lot for me to call you
But now I got you on the phone
I don't wanna cut the small talk
Just to say I feel alone
'Cause I don't wanna be a burden
Make it all about me
Try to keep it on the surface
So you don't see underneath
And I don't know how much it is I can take
If only I could say what I'm thinking
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing
With nobody asking how I really am
Oh, I could use a friend
Much more than I'd admit
Don't wanna stay the obvious
But I'll be losing it
'Cause even though I'm scared
I wanna let you in
But every time I try, I swear, the air is turning thin
But I wanna let you in
If only I could say what I'm thinking
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing
With nobody asking how I really am
Oh, I could use a friend
Whoa-oh-whoa
Oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh-whoa
Oh, I could use a friend
Whoa-oh-whoa
Oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh-whoa
Oh, I could use a friend
I could handle anything
But lately, I feel like a stranger
Living in my own skin
And the older that I'm getting
The less I'm letting out
I can feel my heart screaming
But I never make a sound
And I don't know how much it is I can take
If only I could say what I'm thinking
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing
With nobody asking how I really am
Oh, I could use a friend
It took a lot for me to call you
But now I got you on the phone
I don't wanna cut the small talk
Just to say I feel alone
'Cause I don't wanna be a burden
Make it all about me
Try to keep it on the surface
So you don't see underneath
And I don't know how much it is I can take
If only I could say what I'm thinking
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing
With nobody asking how I really am
Oh, I could use a friend
Much more than I'd admit
Don't wanna stay the obvious
But I'll be losing it
'Cause even though I'm scared
I wanna let you in
But every time I try, I swear, the air is turning thin
But I wanna let you in
If only I could say what I'm thinking
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing
With nobody asking how I really am
Oh, I could use a friend
Whoa-oh-whoa
Oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh-whoa
Oh, I could use a friend
Whoa-oh-whoa
Oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh-whoa
Oh, I could use a friend
