"Baby, I don't feel so good." - six words you never understood.

"I'll never let you go." - five words you'd never say.

I laugh along like nothing's wrong. Four days have never felt so long.

If three's a crowd and two is us, one slipped away.

I just wanna make you feel okay, but all you do is look the other way. I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay. I just kinda wish you were gay!

Is there a reason we're not through? Is there a twelfth step just for you?

Our conversation's well in bloom: eleven "hey"s (hey-hey-hey-hey-hey)

Ten fingers tearing out my hair.

Nine times you never made it there.

I ate (eight) alone at seven.

You were six minutes away.

How am I supposed to make you feel okay when all you do is walk the other way? I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay. I just kinda wish you were gay! To spare my pride. To give your lack of interest an explanation. Don't say I'm not your type, just say that I'm not your preferred sexual orientation. I'm so selfish and you make me feel helpless, yeah. I can't stand another day.  I just wanna make you feel okay, but all you do is look the other way. I can't tell you how much I wish I didn't wanna stay. I just kinda wish you were gay!

I just kinda wish you were gay!

I just kinda wish you were gay...
