I’m Trying (Not Friends) Lyrics:
London twenty twenty, boy and a girl broke up yeah
it’s two a penny
And I been tryna make a big step forward, saw you it
was awkward, nothing like I thought would happen
happened
I was so in love, and that don’t come off in the wash,
kinda hope it does though, coz you’re seeing someone
pretty and I hate her guts so I’ll be telling you she’s
nice on the bus home
We were bad but we’re gonna be good
It didn’t work like I thought it would
And I resent you just a little if I’m honest
But one of us has gotta try to keep a promise
And I swore that I’d swallow my pride
And you swore you would do better this time
Well I might be bitter and twisted and broken and
petty and lying
At least I’m trying, at least I’m trying, at least I’m trying
Three shots, lemon drops, one for being lost and alone
in your early twenties, one for being obsessed with
someone who puts you secondary, one for calling
guys with guitars in a cemetery, just me? Ok
If I’m being frank, I want a sorry but I’ll settle for a
handshake, coz I’m the baby but I’m gonna be the
bigger man babe
So many blank slates I could build a whole fucking
house
We were bad but we’re gonna be good
It didn’t work like I thought it would
And I resent you just a little if I’m honest
But one of us has gotta try to keep a promise
And I swore that I’d swallow my pride
And you swore you would do better this time
Well I might be bitter and twisted and broken and
petty and lying
But at least I’m trying, at least I’m trying
Not friends, no we’re somewhere in between
Coz you’re awful and I miss you and I killed you
in my dream
Last night, even then you didn’t care
It’s a low when even in my dreams you still don’t
want me there
Got friends, got at least a healthy five
Yeah some people think I’m funny, baby don’t look
so surprised
We think, that your girlfriend is a bore
But we’re nice to her in public coz we’re grown up
and mature
Not friends, coz when I asked you on the train
why you hurt me and you couldn’t really actually
explain, I cried, then I told you it was cool,
God you haven’t changed at all
We were bad but we’re gonna be good
It didn’t work like I thought it would
And I resent you just a little if I’m honest
But one of us has gotta try to keep a promise
And I swore that I’d swallow my pride
And you swore you would do better this time
Well I might be bitter and twisted and broken and
petty and lying
And you might be awful like all of the time, yeah it’s
almost inspiring
But at least I’m trying, at least I’m trying, at least
I’m trying
