I didn’t go to the party
I knew that you’d be there and I couldn’t stand it
It’s been 45 days, but who’s counting?
I keep trying to forget it
But I heard you showed up with a new girl on your arm like it was nothing
And when everyone asked about me, you said, “who her?
Oh, that was nothing”
So I’ll be the victim while you play the fool
Busy pretending what we had wasn’t real
And you’ll lie to your friends about the way that you feel
Like it was nothing
Was it really nothing?
I try not to think about what you’d be wearing
The jokes you’d be telling
You’d have everyone laughing
But I try to think about anything else and there’s nothing
Because I told you things I never told anyone else,
So that means nothing?
So I’ll be the victim while you play the fool
Busy pretending what we had wasn’t real
And you’ll lie to your friends about the way that you feel
Like it was nothing
Was it really nothing?
‘Cause you said that you called your mom on the day that we met
You said, “this girl is special, don’t let me forget”
And now you go and say in front of all of our friends
That it meant nothing
Tell me, was it nothing?
‘Cause to me it wasn’t nothing
