[Verse 1]
"Baby, I don't
feel so good"
, 6 words you
never understo
od
"I'll never le
t you go", 5 w
ords you'll ne
ver say
I laugh along
like nothing's
wrong, 4 days
has never fel
t so long
If 3's a crowd
and 2 is us,
1 slipped away
[Chorus]
I just wanna m
ake you feel o
kay
But all you do
is look the o
ther way
I can't tell y
ou how much I
wish I didn't
wanna stay
But I just kin
da wish you we
re gay
[Verse 2]
Is there a rea
son we're not
through
Is there a 12
step just for
you
Our conversati
on's all in bl
ue
11 heys
10 fingers pul
ling on my hai
r
9 times you ne
ver made it th
ere
I ate alone at
7, 6 minutes
away
[Chorus]
How'm I s'pose
d to make you
feel okay
When all you d
o is walk the
other way
I can't tell y
ou how much I
wish I didn't
wanna stay
I just kinda w
ish you were g
ay
[Bridge]
To spare my pr
ide
To give your l
ack of interes
t an explanati
on
I'm not your t
ype
Maybe I'm not
your preferred
gender orient
ation
I'm so selfish
but you make
me feel helple
ss
And I can't st
and another da
y
I can't stand
another day
[Chorus]
I just wanna m
ake you feel o
kay
But all you do
is look the o
ther way
I can't tell y
ou how much I
wish I didn't
wanna stay
I just kinda w
ish you were g
ay
I just kinda w
ish you were g
ay
