I’m not offended and I never was.
I said, “I lied to your face and I made it up.”
I’m acting bored,
it’s my right after all the love
that you bombed.
You kick back on your couch with a glass of mine
It’s not the same as it was between you and I
Yeah time can do something funny,
it can change my mind
How odd
Now I’m so cool,
I’ll be cool and sit out of it.
You promised me that you’d call,
but you never did.
Fool, I’m a fool if the shoe fits
You probably met up with Cass and threw a big fit.
Calm down maybe baby, calm down
Waited for your walls to close on me – they did
I spun ’round, hate the way I spun ’round
All the way ’til I could barely breathe
I’m not pretending in the way you are
You run your hands through your hair,
phony superstar
Then say you miss me, you’re sad,
yeah, I bet you are
And guess what? Mmm
I wish that I didn’t, but I know too much
You stranded Sadie and Sarah when they opened up
A waste of running mascara – you thought we wouldn’t talk
Thought wrong, ahhh
Now I’m so cool,
I’ll be cool and sit out of it.
You paint a picture of us just to burn it
Fool, I’m a fool if the shoe fits
I bet you met up with Dev and threw a big fit.
Calm down maybe baby, calm down
Waited for your walls to close on me – they did
I spun ’round, hate the way I spun ’round
All the way ’til I could barely breathe, breathe, breathe
No, I’ll be fine,
I’ll just look for the silver lining.
Stay out of sight,
half my mind,
you’re still occupying.
Chill for a while,
stole my time,
thanks a lot for nothing.
Stop, I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine.
I’ll be cool,
I’m so cool with a new outfit.
You promised me this was real,
but it wasn’t
Fool, I’m a fool if the shoe fits
You probably met up with Elle and threw a huge fit.
Calm down maybe baby, calm down
Waited for your walls to close on me,
when they did
I spun ’round, hate the way I spun ’round
All the way ’til I could barely breathe
