lyrics

sick and tired of these games
i must play, with your head, you think i'm losing it
said you got to LA
said let's hang, but you're lame, i'd never cruise it and

i sent you simple nicieties
like before
one or two more emojis and
you thought that you were being smooth
but you ain't
baby let's tell you the truth

the joke's on you
i would never, never ever be seen with you

maybe in your home town
on a tuesday, when nobody else's around
we could go to the store
don't try and hold my hand haven't you done this before and

i sent you simple nicieties
like before
oh it took some energy and
you thought that you were being smooth
but you ain't
baby let's tell you the truth

and when the morning comes
i won't wake you up just quietly close the door
i'll take a piece of toast
and nothing else i'm just too insecure

baby let's tell you the truth
