“emily” lyrics

[Intro]
(I'm just a loser)
(My body's moving, oh, yeah—)

[Verse 1]
Secretly knew you would be there
Playing songs about me in front of Jackie
(Playing songs about me in front of)
Fully awake when I locked the door, oh (Oh)
Even heard you knocking at me

[Pre-Chorus]
The running joke of my friend group, but sh*t wasn't funny
Pushed and pushed and pushed you away when all you did was love me
I feel like an archeologist looking back on all of our history
I realized I did the same sh*t to you that my ex did to me
I can't even sugarcoat it, or make it sound better
I airplane-moded all your calls and ripped up all your letters, oh
Ain't no way you don't hate me
Reading through your blog, you won't even name me

[Chorus]
Instead, you call me Emily
Yeah, now you call me Emily
Ooh, now you call me Emily, oh-oh
No, we really don't call each other anything anymore
And it's crazy 'cause you used to call me yours
[Verse 2]
Codenames, now you writin' sh*t in codenames
Got me deciphering codenames
I know you could've gotten more creative than that
There wasn't no thought, wasn't no callback
Sounded like you just said the first name that sounded like my name
And boy, I ain't blaming you
It was fall asleep next to you, wake up hungover
And drive to the airport to pick up my ex and not talk to you for the whole week
Hit you back as soon as he leaves
Soon as he leaves, I call ya, but now I can't call ya

[Pre-Chorus]
So now I tell my whole friend group, I wanna say sorry
And they all say it's way, way too late
So this is me calling
I feel like an archeologist looking back on all of our history
I realized I did the same sh*t to you that my ex did to me
I can't even sugarcoat it, or make it sound okay
Make out with my friends at parties right in front of your face, oh
Ain't no way you don't hate me
Reading through your blog, you won't even name me

[Chorus]
Instead, you call me Emily
Yeah, now you call me Emily
Ooh, now you call me Emily, yeah
No, we really don't call each other anything anymore (No, we don't)
And it's crazy 'cause you used to call me yours
[Outro]
(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Oh-oh, oh)
It's crazy 'cause you used to call me
