about

This song is about the changing friendships you experience in your twenties. They come and go and sometimes it’s hard to accept that. But admitting that to yourself and to each other is the first step.🖤

lyrics

Lyrics:
What is it you’re tryna tell me, or isn’t there anything you wanna tell
What is it you’re tryna hide, or isn’t there something that you wanna hide

I called you a few times, didn’t your telephone ring
Over and over

We act like we forgot
We act like we forgave
Are we living in a lie
Are we living in a lie

What is it you’re tryna tell me, or isn’t there anything you wanna tell
What is it you’re tryna hide, or isn’t there something that you wanna hide

I called you a few times, didn’t your telephone ring
Over and over

We act like we forgot
We act like we forgave
Are we living in a lie
Are we living in a lie

Cause there are times at night
I feel a rage inside
No longer can deny
You’re still the sinner inside
Now I realize
I still hate you a little
Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh

It's hard to tell the truth
A lie is easier
You know we think alike
That's why we

We act like we forgot
We act like we forgave
Are we living in a lie
Are we living in a lie

We act like we forgot (we act like we forgot, we act like we forgot)
We act like we forgave (we act like we forgave, we act like we forgave)
Are we living in a lie (are we living in a lie, are we living in a lie)
Are we living in a lie (are we living in a lie, are we living in a lie)

We act like we forgot
We act like we forgave
Are we living in a lie
Lie

We act like we forgot (we act like we, we act like we)
We act like we forgave (we act like we, are we living)
Are we living in a lie (are we living)
Are we living (are we)
