about

The 3rd single from the upcoming Astronauts .

lyrics

Your hot blood ain’t getting you nowhere
It’s time to make a confession
I thought we shared mutual respect
But way back the sweet turned sour
You set the mood for destruction
It seems we were never meant to function

So I’m turning up
I’m turning up
Just to turn you down
We closed that door
I’m not your friend anymore

I’m making it stop
Burning it to the ground
You chew me up
And you spit me out
Now can’t you see
You got no friend in me

But right now the tables are turning
I’m coming at ya, coming at ya
Crashing like a tidal wave over you
But, hey, you gave up, you gave up
And now you say “we’ve got something special”
Well, this is not a good timing
You’re stepping over the line here

I’m turning up, yeah
I’m turning up
Just to turn you down
We closed that door
I’m not your friend anymore

I’m making it stop
Burning it to the ground
Stop building me up
Just to tear me down
Now can’t you see
You got no friend in me
