Analysis of Friend Zone



Our relationship is bittersweet
We are so close yet you are out of my reach
You trust me, you love me, but not that way
Started a new chapter in life, I'm not on a single page
I can't score, though I'm 2 inches from the endzone
I'm stuck... in the friend zone
You know that I love you, but you put on a front
I offer everything you need, but I'm nothing that you want
When the Bad guy hurts you, the pretty boy cheats
When the player plays, I wipe the tears from your cheek
I resemble the man of your dreams
But I know, I'm just your man in my dreams
Everyone has an addiction, you are my quiet affliction
They couldn't handle the heat, but id love to burn in your kitchen
But yet your so cold to me, better yet, luke warm
When I told you how i felt, you didn't drizzle away, you stormed
Now my hearts shattered, I'm in the dead zone
And I just want...to be in the friendzone
