When will we get The time to be Just friends?
The singer wants to establish a platonic relationship with the other person, but doesn't know when they will be able to do so.

It's never safe for us Not even in the evening 'Cause I've been drinking Not in the morning When your shit works It's always dangerous When everybody's sleeping And I've been thinking Can we be alone? Can we be alone?
The singer knows that they are attracted to the other person and cannot control themselves when under the influence of alcohol or when others are around; they want to be alone with the other person to explore their feelings.

And, no, I'm not ashamed But the guilt will kill you If she don't first I'll never love you like her Thought we need to find a time To just do this shit together 'Fore it gets worse I want to touch you But that just hurts
The singer is not ashamed of their attraction to the other person, but they know that there may be consequences for acting on their feelings; the singer believes that their feelings for the other person will never match those of another person in their life; they feel the need to act on their feelings before they become unbearable, but they know that it will hurt them and the other person in the long run.

When will we get The time to be Just, just friends? When will we get The time to be Just friends, just friends?
The artist repeats the opening lines, emphasizing their desire to establish a platonic relationship with the other person.
