Jessie Reyez ● EMOTIONAL DETACHMENT DEMO

Part 1

[Verse 1]
Met your new girl at Johnny's party
I had to smile and say, "What up"
Then I ran my ass to the bathroom
So I could cry about old love
I came back in with makeup smudged up

Part 1

[Verse 1]
Met your new girl at Johnny's party
I had to smile and say, "What up"
Then I ran my ass to the bathroom
So I could cry about old love
I came back in with makeup smudged up
You caught me wipe it quick low-key
And then you got this weak-ass smile up on your face
As if to say you're sorry, it couldn't be me




[Chorus]
Wish I could be your friend
And not hurt so bad
Wish I could be your friend
And not hurt so bad, yeah

[Verse 2]
I search the room looking for solace
You know whiskey always helps me
Then we lock eyes when I start pouring
Obviously, I'm not doing well
But we can't talk 'cause it ain't appropriate
And she knows exactly who I am
She pulls you closе and tells you maybe y'all should go
And then shе smiles at me, she smiles because she can

[Chorus]
Wish I could be your friend
And not hurt so bad
Wish I could be your friend
And not hurt, hurt so bad

[Outro]
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah
So bad, baby, oh, so bad
So bad, so bad, so bad, so bad
So bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad
I wish it didn't hurt so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad, so bad

Part 2


[Intro]
You wanna know when you finally get better
You get better when you finally fucking tired of being sad

[Verse 1]
I'm sure that I'm the villain in somebody else's story
But this ain't their fuckin' song now, is it?
And I'm sure that someone out there thinks that I should say I'm sorry
But what they think really ain't my business
And I miss the old me who never gave a shit
They say ignorance is bliss and now I get it
The years, they gave me wisdom but they gave me headaches too
And now I know better than to argue with a fool

[Chorus]
So I stay quiet
I stay quiet

[Verse 2]
I heard my old lover still be talkin' shit about me
But that sound like it's their new boo's problem
And even if they said it to my face, I think I'd smile
'Cause I learned peace of mind is all I wanted
Finally growing, cost me quite a bit
They say ignorance is bliss and now I get it
The years they gave me wisdom but they gave me heartaches too
And now I know better than to argue with a fool

[Chorus]

So I stay quiet
I stay quiet
I stay quiet
I stay quiet
