[Chorus: Ryan Hall]
Don't wait up
I take everything for granted
This ain't love
It's something I think you made up
When everything disappears
Lose all your friends you hold dear, yeah
Don't say I didn't warn you at all-all-all-all-all
[Verse 1: Ryan Hall]
Last night, you gave it all just for me
What's the point if you and me is just to pass time?
Clo-clothes on the floor
Don't know what we're waiting for
Your curfew's at nine
I've been staying up late
Rehearsing what I'll say when this ends
(When this ends)
[Pre-Chorus: Ryan Hall]
This is not a question of who loves who more
(Who loves who more?)
I wake up and wonder thoughts I should ignore (I should ignore)
What if I fuck it up?
What if I push my luck?
I can't commit to the silence, the silence, the si—
[Chorus: Ryan Hall]
Don't wait up
I take everything for granted
This ain't love
It's something I think you made up
When everything disappears
Lose all your friends you hold dear, yeah
Don't say I didn't warn you at all
[Verse 2: Atlas in Motion]
Last night, saw you again, said
"Could we make it in? Do we have time?" Uh
No-no self-control, I'm always
Over-overthinking 'bout the half-life
Got nothing against you
Don't know where my heart is
Know I got issues, I'm just being honest
Notes app filled with half-written responses
No, you won't get this
Last night, bet you felt a little distant
'Cause I'm the one fucking up the friendship
Could you come over and bring me to my senses? (Senses)
Don't wanna get complicated
I don't have the time to go and find the patience
Do I even gotta say this?
[Chorus: Ryan Hall & Atlas in Motion]
Don't wait up
I take everything for granted
This ain't love
It's something I think you made up
When everything disappears
Love all your friends you hold dear, yeah
(Don't say, don't say)
Don't say I didn't warn you at all
(I didn't warn you at all)
Don't say, don't say, "no"
(Don't say, don't say)
Don't say I didn't warn you at all
(Don't say I didn't warn you at all)
(Yes) Don't say I didn't warn you at all
[Outro: Ryan Hall]
It was so weird it was like, it just kind of started like I can already tell how I was gonna like [?]
The fact that it's gonna end, you know what I mean? You know, I feel like that mindset kind of like subconsciously set this thing in motion, is this something we wanna start? Uh, yeah
