Bree Runway confronts her lingering attachment to an unhealthy relationship in “What Do I Tell My Friends?” Exploring her own fragility and finding strength, she decides to call it quits – to avoid the risk of losing her friends and loved ones who care about her happiness.
[Verse 1]
Hold me, don't let me go
I'm fragile, I'm gonna fall right into you
Catch time that I have lost
Fly high, free fall, ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
I'll get stupid, I'll get du-u-umb
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up, turn it up, uh
You're ge-ge-getting way too close
[Chorus]
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Stop blowin' up my phone
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Just let me be alone
(Oh oh, oh oh)
It's gotta come to an end
'Cause what do I tell my friends?
What do I tell my friends?
[Post-Chorus]
So what the hell am I gonna tell them?
Sis, when you get this, can you call me?
I don't wanna be a weak bitch anymore
[Verse 2]
In the mirror like you're tough, right?
I shoulda known once when you bit twice
Hit drop both, my loss, yeah, I been nice
Vodka overdose with no ice
I'm done catching feelings, I catch flights
Was in the dark but I got bright
Not crawling back to you tonight
Not crawling back to you tonight, tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
I'll get stupid, I'll get du-u-umb
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up, turn it up, uh
You're ge-ge-getting way too close
[Chorus]
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Stop blowin' up my phone
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Just let me be alone
(Oh oh, oh oh)
It's gotta come to an end
'Cause what do I tell my friends?
What do I tell my friends?
[Bridge]
What do I tell my friends, what do I tell my friends?
What do I tell my friends?
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
I'll get stupid, I'll get du-u-umb
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up for a wild one
Turn it up, turn it up, uh
You're ge-ge-getting way too close
[Chorus]
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Stop gettin', stop gettin'
(Oh oh, oh oh)
You're getting way, way, way
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Stop blowing up my phone
(Oh oh, oh oh)
Just let me be alone
(Oh oh, oh oh)
It's gotta come to an end
'Cause what do I tell my friends?
What do I tell my friends?
