Not Your Therapist

Spoken:

So... what would you like to talk about today?

Intro:

You see, I’ve got — well, I had a girlfriend back home

We were together for five years or so

We lived together and all that

Yeah, it was easy... it was good, it was fun 

Until, of course, I moved off.

One:

We tried long distance for a couple months 

I could've done it longer, if I'm honest 

But she was — she couldn't do it 

So she broke it off with me 

Yeah, it hurt — but I understood it 

Guess it's mostly on me.

Chorus:

You know me, I'm usually the strong one

The one people lean on when things go wrong 

And for years, I was that for her

But don't you think I need some time to sit with the hurt?

She broke up with me 

But she kept on calling

In the middle of the night

"I love yous" and "I'm sorrys"

But she don't wanna be back together

So I told her, hon... I'm not your therapist

Spoken:

How does that make you feel?

Two:

This went on for about a year

Kept me stuck, kept me right here 

She said it's fine if I start dating

But it's not really fine if she's still texting, right?

Three:

So when I went back home, I finally stood my ground

Said, “this has to end, please don't call me now”

You were the one who let it go

But I'm the one still stuck in it somehow.

(Repeat chorus)

Five:

So you see, I need some help, that's why I'm here 

I'm technically free, but it's not that clear 

All my friends say I should start dating 

But for some reason I just don't feel worthy.

Outro:

I have it... I see it now

Maybe I'm better off on my own somehow

Maybe I'm not meant for somebody

Maybe I just live this life, alone and free.

Spoken:

We'll see each other again next week
