[Verse 1]
Didn't get up till the afternoon
Our plans fell through and now
You're calling me out
Guess I should've set the alarm
A little earlier
'Cause now you call me up
Alright, I'm not enough
Alright, I fucked it up
Alright, I'm such a slut
Alright, whatever helps you sleep at night
[Verse 2]
Didn't wanna have this out with you
But now I have no choice

Well, if you were better to me

Alright, you're a good guy

You're like a piece of shit, you either sink or float
So you take her for a ride on your daddy's boat
And you are not in love, but it's close enough
You say you think about me when you're fucking her
