Friends with an Ex (Radio Edit)

[Intro]
(Friends with an ex)

[Verse 1]
Holding on
Wonder if I'm weak or strong
Thought I belonged
Close to you but we were wrong

You said you weren't the villain in this story
Promised you'd be there for me
Even if the love was gone
Said that we should carry on

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh, I wish I could tell white from black
But your heart attacks in gray
If I could speak to myself from five years back
Catch her in the act, I'd say

[Chorus 1]
Dear little me
Hope you place your bet
On the one who's gonna be more than a flex
'Cause you see
You don't know it yet
How much it sucks to be friends with an ex

[Post-Chorus 1]
(Yeah, it sucks to be friend with an ex)

[Verse 2]
What was I thinking when I said yes
Kept your number pinned up at the top of my texts
And I don't know why I let you break me again
My friend

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh, I wish I could tell white from black
But your heart attacks in gray
If I could speak to myself from five years back
Catch her in the act, I'd say

[Chorus 2]
Dear little me
Hope you place your bet
On the one who's gonna be more than a flex
'Cause you see
You don't know it yet
How much it sucks to be friends with an ex

[Chorus 3]
Dear little me
The end for you is next
Why'd you love the one who would screw with your head
'Cause you see
You don't know it yet
How much it sucks to be friends with an ex

[Post-Chorus 2]
(Yeah, it sucks to be friend with an ex)
(Yeah, it sucks to be friend with an ex)

[Tag]
You said you weren't the villain in this story
(Oh, it sucks to be friend with an ex)
Promised you'd be there, be there for me
(Yeah, it sucks to be friend with an ex)

[Outro]
Little me
Hope you place your bet
On the one who's gonna be more than a flex
You see
You don't know it yet
It really sucks to be friends with an ex
