I said, 'I wanna come over'
You said, 'Okay, just come over'
Your friends are all on the couch
Your friends said, 'Let's walk around'

I'll pretend your friends are my friends
And kinda try not to offend them
But I won't let you see anything real
Let you know, there's limits to

I stopped talking an hour ago
I stopped talking an hour ago
I stopped talking an hour ago
I stopped talking an hour ago

It's one particular point of view
This group dynamic caters to
It's a predictable point of view
I think you know when it caters to you

And if you do know, don't act like you don't
'Cause it's really annoying
And if you don't know, well, let's just say
You're a lot, lot stupider than I thought

I'll pretend your friends are my friends
But I don't wanna hear you defend them
In fact, that kind of insults me
And I kinda don't really wanna be here right

I stopped talking an hour ago
I stopped talking an hour ago
I stopped talking an hour ago
I stopped talking an hour ago, ago

Okay, your whole thing put me in
Negative space for way too fucking long
The only thing that I managed to say during that time was
'I hate danger'
What I really should have said was
'You're so not dangerous'
'You're so not what you say you are at all'

    yr all kinda right. but it can be anyone. like someone yr friends with and the rest of their friends 'cater to that particular point of view", and they only really want you when you have something to offer them. when they want something from you. and they put on this front, to be something they're not. and this friend is frustrated cuz they see it & they want more, bettter. for them and their friend. & don't bother trying to defend them, she'll just roll her eyes at you.

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
