Null Point - Can We Still Be Friends? Lyrics

I never got it right
So many times you tried
To give me a chance
Still, I blamed my circumstance

But now I'm standing on my own
Trying to sort things out
This feeling is too well known
So why am I not used to it

In the past I've always needed a hand
Someone to hear my voice when it calls
But she's not picking up the phone

Maybe no reply answers my questions
But I'm always here second guessing
That things could've worked out in the end

Some days we laughed and loved
Other times we pushed and shoved
Why can't we forget and make up
I guess we didn't love each other enough

Moving forward we'll still need a friend
Someone to call when a bad day ends
Can I call you this afternoon

Maybe no reply answers my questions
But I'm still here second guessing
That things could've worked out in the end

So really I'm just lying when I say I want you back
I know we both had our troubles
And I didn't always handle mine the best
And I never really helped you out with yours
We also had some really good times
But sometimes you gotta let those go
And realize that the two of us are better off apart
Why?
I'm not sure why
But that's what I've been trying to tell myself
For the last 8 months or so
I'm hoping to find the answer by the end of all of this

I guess I'm better off not knowing for sure how you feel these days
I couldn't take it if I knew you hurt like I did
I pray to God you find peace and clarity
I want nothing but the best for you
And I know, I know that that wasn't always clear
But deep down I want you to be hay
I don't want it any other way

And all of this probably makes me sound like a real f*cking cry baby
But all those random people listening don't really know me
You're the only one I had to talk to for years
And when you disappeared
I freaked the f*ck out

I was lost without you
But I've begun to find myself again
And I'm not really sure who he his
So I'm taking the time to really get to know him
And writing all of these songs has probably been the most selfish thing I've ever done
But I tried to make them as sincere as possible
Because they're all about you
Some of them sad or frustrated
But it's all because I was in love with you

But I know what I have to do now
I have to detach myself from you forever
So we can both be happy
