lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tell me again,
Are we just friends?
I’ve heard it before
You walked out on me
You took your release
Tell me again,
Are we broken?
Your walls are crumbling
This architecture’s not your best
You took the fall
Look at the mess
[Chorus]
You know
You’re not something special
You know
You don’t have a backbone
[Verse 2]
Tell me again,
What’s his last name?
I’ve heard it before
He turned out to be
A gentleman, didn’t he?
Tell me again,
Is your bed made?
This place is a wreck
Last night was not your best
You took the fall
Look at the mess
[Chorus]
You know
You’re not something special
You know
You don’t have a backbone
(2x)
Read between the lines
Tell me what you find
The harder that it gets
The easier it is to lie
[Verse 3]
Tell me again,
Are we over?
I want to be sure
You’re confusing me
Agree to disagree
Tell me again,
Hopeless lover
That you’re moving on
It’s all in good fun
It was a good run
[Chorus]
You know
You’re not something special
You know
You don’t have a backbone
(2x)
Read between the lines
Tell me what you find
The harder that it gets
The easier it is to lie
Tell me again,
Are we just friends?
I’ve heard it before
You walked out on me
You took your release
Tell me again,
Are we broken?
Your walls are crumbling
This architecture’s not your best
You took the fall
Look at the mess
[Chorus]
You know
You’re not something special
You know
You don’t have a backbone
[Verse 2]
Tell me again,
What’s his last name?
I’ve heard it before
He turned out to be
A gentleman, didn’t he?
Tell me again,
Is your bed made?
This place is a wreck
Last night was not your best
You took the fall
Look at the mess
[Chorus]
You know
You’re not something special
You know
You don’t have a backbone
(2x)
Read between the lines
Tell me what you find
The harder that it gets
The easier it is to lie
[Verse 3]
Tell me again,
Are we over?
I want to be sure
You’re confusing me
Agree to disagree
Tell me again,
Hopeless lover
That you’re moving on
It’s all in good fun
It was a good run
[Chorus]
You know
You’re not something special
You know
You don’t have a backbone
(2x)
Read between the lines
Tell me what you find
The harder that it gets
The easier it is to lie
