Ben Kessler - Just Wanna Be Your Friend Lyrics

I think my time is better spent with yours
So I keep twisting and shapeshifting into someone I think you’d fall for
Speaking to you in metaphors
Using words I’d never say to make you think that I know more
Than I do
Cover up my bruises
Make it so confusing tryin to be next to you
I feel like I am losing every piece of me i knew
Just wanna be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
Think I like the way I feel with you
Hoping one day we can laugh about a time it wasn’t true
You fly higher than you think you do
Reaching up as high as I can
Still can’t get to you
Just wanna be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
Losing myself to be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
Who am I when I don’t want ya?
I forget who I am when I ain’t around ya
Who am I when I can’t see ya?
I forget how to see the world when I can’t see ya
Been asking myself if you’re worth the weight
Will I become someone you see?
Will I bend so far I break?
Don't have enough of your time to waste
So I won’t wait
I won’t wait
Just wanna be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
Losing myself to be your friend
Just wanna be your friend

I think my time is better spent with yours
So I keep twisting and shapeshifting into someone I think you’d fall for
Speaking to you in metaphors
Using words I’d never say to make you think that I know more
Than I do
Cover up my bruises
Make it so confusing tryin to be next to you
I feel like I am losing every piece of me i knew
Just wanna be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
Think I like the way I feel with you
Hoping one day we can laugh about a time it wasn’t true
You fly higher than you think you do
Reaching up as high as I can
Still can’t get to you
Just wanna be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
Losing myself to be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
Who am I when I don’t want ya?
I forget who I am when I ain’t around ya
Who am I when I can’t see ya?
I forget how to see the world when I can’t see ya
Been asking myself if you’re worth the weight
Will I become someone you see?
Will I bend so far I break?
Don't have enough of your time to waste
So I won’t wait
I won’t wait
Just wanna be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
Losing myself to be your friend
Just wanna be your friend
