Lyrics

[Verse 1]
"Shit, I probably shoulda"
That's my favorite line
Stick around, I woulda
It just isn't what I'm like
Got no better way to put it
Know you're putting in the time
And everytime I'm like nah, nah, nah
You know I don't mean it, right?
[PreChorus]
It's nothing that you did or didn't do
I say I will and never follow through
The second I admit I felt it too
Yeah, I was gone
[Chorus]
If I cut you off, it just means I care
Downright shut you out must mean that it's going somewhere
It's not what I want, it's just all I know
If overnight I up and end it, run away without a mention, go ghost
I like you the most
[PostChorus]
I like you the most
I like you the most
Like you, like you
I like you the most
[Verse 2]
And it's not about being hard to get
But I planted a seed in the back of my head
Little too good got me second guessing
Never been good at the self-expression
[PreChorus]
Nothing that you did or could have done
No, this just ain't a fight you could've won
Sorry, I'm the best who's ever been
Stringing you along
[Chorus]
If I cut you off, it just means I care
Downright shut you out must mean that it's going somewhere
It's not what I want, it's just all I know
If overnight I up and end it, run away without a mention, go ghost
I like you the most
[Bridge]
If I cut you off
It just means I care, means I care
If I cut you off
It just means I care (I'm just helping you out there)
Yeah, if I cut you off
It just means I care, means I care
If I cut you off
It just means I care
[Chorus]
If I cut you off, it just means I care
Downright shut you out must mean that it's going somewhere
It's not what I want, it's just all I know
If overnight I up and end it, run away without a mention, go ghost
I like you the most
[Outro]
I like you the most
I like you the most
Like you, like you
I like you the most
I like you the most
I like you the most
Like you, like you
