Just Friends
Prozzak Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got a message from you last night on the phone
You said you're missing me and I should call you
And after all the things we've been through in the end
I can't believe that we can't do what friends do

And I'm here
To tell you
I never broke my promise to you
No fear
No pressure
On you

But if we are just friends
Then how come I'm crying
You laugh
While inside I'm dying
Pretend
For your sake I'm lying
Be strong
You know that I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends

I still remember how you looked at me that way
Like I was everything you ever wanted
I didn't mean to let you down the way I did
Darkness descended and we just can't stop it

And you're here
To remind me
Of the things I said I would do
Don't you worry my dear
I'm right here
For you

But if we are just friends
Then how come I'm crying
You laugh
While inside I'm dying
Pretend
For your sake I'm lying
Be strong
You know that I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends

I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
To let you go free




If that's what you need from me
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends

Line by Line Meaning

I got a message from you last night on the phone
You contacted me last night through the phone


You said you're missing me and I should call you
You expressed that you are feeling my absence and want me to call you


And after all the things we've been through in the end
Despite everything we've experienced together


I can't believe that we can't do what friends do
I find it hard to accept that we can't maintain a platonic friendship


And I'm here
I am currently present


To tell you
To inform you


I never broke my promise to you
I have always kept my word to you


No fear
Do not be afraid


No pressure
There is no obligation


On you
On your part


But if we are just friends
However, if we are only friends


Then how come I'm crying
Why do tears flow down my face


You laugh
You are laughing


While inside I'm dying
While I am mentally and emotionally suffering


Pretend
Act as if


For your sake I'm lying
To spare your feelings, I am not telling the truth


Be strong
Stay brave and resilient


You know that I'm trying to let you go free
You understand that I am making an effort to allow you to move on


If that's what you need from me
If that is what you require of me


Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends
Oh, we are purely platonic companions


I still remember how you looked at me that way
I retain the memory of the way you looked at me with affection


Like I was everything you ever wanted
As if I embodied all that you desired in another person


I didn't mean to let you down the way I did
It was not my intention to disappoint you in the manner that I did


Darkness descended and we just can't stop it
A negative change occurred and we are incapable of reversing the situation


And you're here
Presently, you are here


To remind me
To refresh my memory


Of the things I said I would do
Of the promises I made to you


Don't you worry my dear
Do not be concerned, my beloved


I'm right here
I am here with you at this moment


To let you go free
To enable you to move on with your life


I'm trying to let you go free
I am attempting to allow you to experience liberty


If that's what you need from me
If that is what you require of me


To let you go free
To allow you to be free


If that's what you need from me
If that is what you require of me


Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends
Oh, we are purely platonic companions

Times change, people change, shit happens. Prozzak has always been my favorite bands since before I knew what their lyrics meant. Here I am, a full grown adult, finding out they have alot more albums that I thought, and, I love them and relate to their more mature music like this. Haters gonna hate, but Prozzac wins.

A guy I used to love played this song to me to let me know that he wanted to be more than just friends.. Oh how I miss those days.
