lyrics

you say you never want a family
so I'm not really sure why you're with me
maybe cause the sex is nice
maybe cause we never get in fights
but truth be told that's kinda a lie
and most the time your stupid words make me cry

so just shut up shut up
I don't want to hear from you anymore
remember when we used to fool around on your floor
and on the couch and in the van
im not so sure I wanna be your friend
so shut up shut up shut up
and walk away
it's no different than any other day
it sucks that this had to end
but maybe i'll just date one of your friends

you said you stopped loving me
so i'm not really sure why you stayed with me
maybe cause the sex was nice
maybe cause we always got in fights
but I don't wanna hear your stupid lies
and after that night I kinda wanted to die

so just shut up shut up
i don't want to hear from you anymore
remember when we used to fool around on your floor
and on the couch and in the van
im not so sure I wanna be your friend
so shut up shut up shut up
and walk away
it's no different than any other day
it sucks that this had to end
but maybe i'll just date some of your friends

I don't really know what to do now
I miss your shows and i miss your house
I miss your stupid beard and when you acted like you cared
you say we had to split
but good luck finding a girl to put up with your shit

so just shut up shut up
I don't want to hear from you anymore
remember when we used to fool around on your floor
and on the couch and in the van
I'm not so sure I wanna be your friend
so shut up shut up shut up
and walk away
it's no different than any other day
it sucks that this had to end
but i'll probably just date all of your friends
