"Roommates" lyrics
"Roommates"
I can barely mention it without causing some ego trauma
But I know you're sensing how I'm tryna give you hints
Physical affection goes a long way with me, I don't wanna
Quietly resent you, I just want the easy fix
But life is lifing and pressure is pressuring me
Oh, I wish that I could catch you in the right light
I only want the beginning, I don't want the end
Want the part where you say goddamn
Back of a dive bar, giving you head
Then sneak home late, wake up your roommates
Want the highlights, ten out of ten
The butterflies from holding your hand
Before we swept us under the bed
And we became practically roommates
I'm touching myself by the front door
But you don't even look my way no more
Maybe like the stars at noon
You won't come out until you're ready
But here I am telling you don't put off the night too long
And I know we would laugh if I tried walking in in something sexy
But I don't wanna beg you, I know you know what I want
But life is lifing and pressure is pressuring me
Oh, I wish that I could catch you in the right light
I only want the beginning, I don't want the end
Want the part where you say goddamn
Back of a dive bar, giving you head
Then sneak home late, wake up your roommates
Want the highlights, ten out of ten
The butterflies from holding your hand
Before we swept us under the bed
And we became practically roommates
I'm touching myself, looking at porn
'Cause you don't even look my way no more
I wanna stay your new girl
Always-think-I'm-cute girl
Only in the whole world
I'm paranoid of new girls
All the shiny cute girls
God, it makes my head swirl
I only want the beginning, I don't want the end
Want the part where you say goddamn
Back of a dive bar, giving you head
Then sneak home late, wake up your roommates
Want the highlights, ten out of ten
The butterflies from holding your hand
Before we swept us under the bed
And we became practically roommates
I'm touching myself by the front door
But you don't even look my way no more
You don't even look my way no more

Hilary Duff shared the following about this song on Instagram on the song's release day, the 15th of January, 2026,
"'Roommates' is a song about when life is life-ing, babe. It's that ache for a wilder, freer time – before the days were swallowed by carpools, budget talks, grocery runs and letting old or new insecurities slip in. It's the restless hum of wanting to find your way back – to your rhythm, to your person, to yourself." She also posted a fragment of this track's
music video directed by Matty Peacock.
"Roommates" was co-written by Hilary Duff, her husband, musician Matthew Koma, and Brian Phillips, and co-produced by Koma and Phillips.
