What You'Re Not

(Ooh, ooh)

I'm waiting for silence
While watching your call
I'm trying to not pick up the phone
'Cause you'd say I'm a liar
And you wouldn't be wrong
But forgive me for tryna play along

'Cause we break down together
We make out together
We fake out our problems
And make one that never escapes our endeavors
Know you could do better than me

But you don't want nothing to do with someone who makes you smile
And you don't want nothing to say to someone who hears your cries
No, you don't try making amends with someone who makes you feel alive
'Cause there's someone who always reminds you what you're not

(Ooh, ooh)

We're a perfect distraction from what's in our heads
Reminders of paths we didn't tread
'Cause anything is better than admitting we'd be better alone
When you'd rather be dead than be living on your own (Own)

But you don't want nothing to do with someone who makes you smile
And you don't want nothing to say to someone who hears your cries
No, you don't try making amends with someone who makes you feel alive
(Ooh, ooh)
'Cause there's someone who always reminds you—

'Cause we break down together
We make out together
We fake out our problems
And make ones that never escape our endeavors
I know you'll do better than me
But for now
We'll take what we get, and we'll work through regret
And we'll plan for a future we prolly won't get
We fake love for now, but I know you'll do better than me

'Cause you won't want nothing to do with someone who makes you cry
And you won't have something to say with someone who needs more time
No, you'll go start making amends with someone
Who makes you feel alive (Ooh, ooh)
'Cause there's someone who's gonna remind you what you're not

(Ooh, ooh)
What you're not
(Ooh, ooh)

'Cause anything is better than admitting we'd be better alone
(Ooh, ooh)
But there's someone who's gonna remind you what I'm not
