[Verse 1]
We were tangled in your bedsheets
You were tracing all my tattoos
Thought the future had our faces
On some little kid’s shoes
Then you laughed with him in late DMs
Inside jokes I never knew
I was busy saying “he’s my brother”
You were choosing who was who
[Chorus]
You gave my future to my best friend
Now he’s holding what I prayed for in his hands
And I’m scrolling through your pictures
Like a stranger, like a fan
You built a family in the fallout
Left me faded in the background of your plans
You gave my future to my best friend
Now I’m trying to love again
[Verse 2]
Saw the post, tiny hospital wristband
Caption said “my whole world”
My heart dropped through the floorboards
While the comments called you “girl”
He was standing where I pictured me
Same dumb smile, same crooked teeth
There’s a crib where we once argued
About which side we’d take to sleep
[Chorus]
You gave my future to my best friend
Now he’s holding what I prayed for in his hands
And I’m scrolling through your pictures
Like a stranger, like a fan
You built a family in the fallout
Left me faded in the background of your plans
You gave my future to my best friend
Now I’m trying to love again
[Bridge]
So I swipe right on a hundred faces
Talk too deep on the second date
Hope somebody feels like home
But it all feels second place
Tell them “yeah, I’m kinda broken” (yeah)
Try to laugh it off as fate
But every time I taste new lips
I still taste your middle name
[Chorus]
You gave my future to my best friend
Now he’s holding what I prayed for in his hands
And I’m scrolling through your pictures
Like a stranger, like a fan
You built a family in the fallout
Left me faded in the background of your plans
You gave my future to my best friend
But I’ll learn to love again (oh yeah)
Yeah, I’ll learn to love again
