"Favorite Person" lyrics
Everyone you get close to, you eventually hate
At first, I saw you everywhere, now you call me every day
You're magnetic, you're addicted, you take me all over town
No, will they, won't they, friendship? A drink I can't put down
Right now, I'm your favorite person
Right now, you think I'm the best
I don't wanna brace for your impact
But I know how you get
It's building slowly, the more you know me
For now, we'll go to the bar, we'll talk in my car
And you'll say you love me
But just one wrong move opens the wound
Resentment's a knife, and this isn't a fight
But you'll cut me, you'll cut me
You've been avoiding me in public since our phone call in June
When we talk, you say you miss me, but I don't think that's true
Every time you get like this, I grovel at your feet
But this time I'm holding out, we don't have to speak
You've got a new favorite person
Right now, you think she's the best
I don't wanna brace for your impact
But I know how you get
It's building slowly, the more you know me
For now, we'll go to the bar, we'll talk in my car
And you'll say you love me
But just one wrong move opens the wound
Resentment's a knife, and this isn't a fight
But you'll cut me, you'll cut me
Open with a dull knife, cut me out of your life
Actin' like you never
Kissed me hard at lakeside, shit all the girls I liked
As if we'd ever be together
Oh, indebted to the bar tab, maybe I was a cash grab
A glorified designated driver
Pretending that you're backstabbed, talking shit to the band
I'm moving on to something better
It's building slowly
Mm-mm-mm
But just one wrong move opens your wounds
Resentment's a knife, and this wasn't a fight
But you'll cut me, you'll cut me
At first, I saw you everywhere, now you call me every day
You're magnetic, you're addicted, you take me all over town
No, will they, won't they, friendship? A drink I can't put down
Right now, I'm your favorite person
Right now, you think I'm the best
I don't wanna brace for your impact
But I know how you get
It's building slowly, the more you know me
For now, we'll go to the bar, we'll talk in my car
And you'll say you love me
But just one wrong move opens the wound
Resentment's a knife, and this isn't a fight
But you'll cut me, you'll cut me
You've been avoiding me in public since our phone call in June
When we talk, you say you miss me, but I don't think that's true
Every time you get like this, I grovel at your feet
But this time I'm holding out, we don't have to speak
You've got a new favorite person
Right now, you think she's the best
I don't wanna brace for your impact
But I know how you get
It's building slowly, the more you know me
For now, we'll go to the bar, we'll talk in my car
And you'll say you love me
But just one wrong move opens the wound
Resentment's a knife, and this isn't a fight
But you'll cut me, you'll cut me
Open with a dull knife, cut me out of your life
Actin' like you never
Kissed me hard at lakeside, shit all the girls I liked
As if we'd ever be together
Oh, indebted to the bar tab, maybe I was a cash grab
A glorified designated driver
Pretending that you're backstabbed, talking shit to the band
I'm moving on to something better
It's building slowly
Mm-mm-mm
But just one wrong move opens your wounds
Resentment's a knife, and this wasn't a fight
But you'll cut me, you'll cut me
