2024 is about to end, and I'll still listen to this playlist on repeat. Nikis' songs are so underrated. Her songs always ease me no matter the circumstances, that's how beautiful they are.
A love letter from me to myself listening to these kinds of songs expecially to niki whenever she has liked or lost someone; its been a while and im here again but then again, its like im being with a friend ive never seen for a while. You who are me, for you are so brave to go through another heartbreak, big, bad, small, or a little bit out of hand- Im proud of you for always believing in love, I commend you for being stupid to fall again but smart enough to get back up again on your feet to experience life again, the way you see it and always being better , believing to be better and doing for the better brick by brick- youve gone a long journey to be here, those 10 years of your life seeing and feeling the opposite of everything you believe in - oh my dear sweet self, i promise that good days will come, it will come and it will be wonderful, itll be everything youve hoped and think of, but for now, endure it, feel it, feel it everyday until its just another summer cold fall out of love, be the vintage that you are with every person youve loved, let gone, for every losing game, for every joke, every stupid punch line that missed your way to theirs, always remember to drive on the switchblade to get to that plot twist that youre ever wishing to have, and I say this now and for all, that you will get there my love, you will, someday, so dont lose urself for others ever again love, zai.

thanks bro
Thankyou ❤
This is the reason why i love Niki's songs, they are perfect to listen when its raining also when you're about to sleep :)
True💯
True! It's also my fav,lol!
Found my “THE” playlist for 2022😭❤️🔥
Yessss🤞😩
I couldn’t agree more, I’m obsessed
yess!! I’m glad she’s getting her recognition :))
Niki's music is really one of my therapy, been dealing with a lot of shit lately and NIKIS been always there , savin me from my minds chaos. ILYYY NIKI!
"Strange Land"
[NIKI:]
Here for the nosedive
Whatever you need
And I'm savin' all the bold lines
I'll say 'em while you sleep
You're sleepin' on the wrong side
And I'm turnin' endlessly
Screamin' for my lifeline, lifeline, life
Ooh, continental drifter
Still, I'm the hero of my hometown
Now I'm all laid up with you, sentimental trickster
Maybe in another lifetime, lifetime, life (Oh)
[Phum Viphurit:]
In a strange land, with no plans
Surrounded by doors, yeah
I can't find myself anymore
With foreign people, you're my temple
I want things like they were before
(But I don't know myself anymore)
With you, love was simple
My spiritual crystal
But now life is limbo
I'll wait for tomorrow
[NIKI:]
Ooh, continental drifter
Still, I'm the hero of my hometown
Now I'm all laid up with you, sentimental trickster
Maybe in another lifetime, lifetime, life (Oh)
This is looking like I might just wanna, stay
Can’t remember much about yesterday
Ground is glowing, I’m slowing my stride with every step
(Take a good look at it girl, take a good look at this world, ah)
Electric rivers flow by the silhouette, trees
We skinny dip and soak in all of our past, dreams
And all my new friends dazzle like they’re royals
(Take a good look at it girl, take a good look at this world, ah)
What is, this place?
The skies are vast and no one’s a familiar face
But I’m not afraid
Kinda feeling brave
The winds of change have nothing on this switchblade faith
I’ll take it to my grave
Ooh, ooh, ooh
The night is young and it’s wild
I’m running free like a child
On the crown of a mountain and I could keep goin’ for miles
I don’t know what’s coming next
I feel a buzz in my legs
But heaven knows that I’m quick on my feet and
Good with a blade and some old-fashioned faith in a place like this
And I’m feeling brave
The winds of change have nothing on this switchblade faith
I’ll take it to my grave
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Lining’s silver grass is greener and I’m on my way
Brightest flicker ain’t no quitter I’ll be here to stay
Lining’s silver grass is greener and I’m not afraid
Cause I’m running with a switchblade
Lining’s silver grass is greener and I’m on my way
Brightest flicker ain’t no quitter I’ll be here to stay
Lining’s silver grass is greener and I’m not afraid
Cause I’m running with a switchblade
My favorite song 🥰
@@hafsaaleem5688 mine too
how could Niki write such sweet great songs. i'm cryin'
So glad I found this playlist! Been scrolling youtube for ages, not gonna start my day without the perfect playlist to jam with that fits my mood. This is like a treasure. Thank you for making this playlist ❤️

samee
city night lights, roadtrips, chilling, falling inlove, are the vibes i always get when i'm listening to her discography. i love it so much, i never get tired listening to it
Ngl, the first thing that got into my mind when I first read this was the Spotify ad😅

thankyou for making this,i never knew i really need this.thankyou❤️ i got so depressed and niki’s song help me go through that
you're welcome🥰 hope you're feeling better :)
"Lowkey"
Wonder what I'll do
When the cops come through
And the whiskey's run out
'Cause I've been looking at you
Since half past two
Wanna take this downtown
This liquid courage
Got me way too honest
Put your phone on vibrate
Let's catch a vibe babe
While the sun's down
Hush now, I know
We're a little too fucked up to stay still love
Be as quiet as you can
'Cause if anyone sees they'll just blow shit up
I don't gotta know if you're taken
I'll just let you know, bedroom's vacant
No one's gotta know, just us and the moon
Till the sun starts waking
Up's the only direction I see
As long as we keep this
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, lowkey
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
You ain't even gotta lo-, lo-, lo-, lo-, lo-, lo-, lo-, love me
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Us in a king sized, keep it a secret
Say I'm your queen, I don't wanna leave this
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, lowkey
Wizard with words, tellin' me
My energy's so bewitching
So I'll go first
There's an open bar
Let's close this distance
Oh-oh-oh, my
Don't make me have to spell it all night
I don't really give a fuck
'Bout all the "he said, she said" bullshit
So pick your poison love
Let's go somewhere a little more exclusive
Take a shot, take a chance, take my hand boy
Tension so intense like an asteroid
Be discreet, gotta dodge all the tabloids
Let's not think too much, there ain't no problems
As long as we keep this
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, lowkey
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
You ain't even gotta lo-, lo-, lo-, lo-, lo-, lo-, lo-, love me
(Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Us in a king sized, keep it a secret
Say I'm your queen, I don't wanna leave this
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, lowkey
omyy im grateful u make this amazing niki's playlist
thank you! 🥰
This comments section is so wholesale like I love these people who just put whole lyrics of these songs:)
Like how you guys are so considerate and also other people who are just commenting simply 😌♥️
will never get sick of this playlist
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin'
As they do
Look what we got
A thickening plot
Just when I started getting used to
The thought
Of closing the book
There you were, in every nook
Of every word, every page
And now I wanna stay and wait, 'cause
Met every comma, every question mark
Bored of how all of the chapters start
But you feel like a brand new arc
That I never knew, oh
I'd like to think I know a thing or two
Like every day the sky's a different blue
And then along came you, oh
Guess
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin'
As they do
And we're all still just
Stories above concrete
X amount of heartbeats
So thank God for plot twists like you
Ooh, ooh
Ooh (ooh)
Where have you been
All of my life?
It's all growin' dim, now
That you've come to light
And who could've known, who would've thought
Between the wishbones and dot-dot-dots
There was always gonna be you and I
And now
I'm dancing barefoot in the open streets
Hangin' onto every word you speak
'Cause you keep me at the edge of my seat
With your every move, oh
I'd like to think I know a thing or two
Like every story ending's tried-and-true
And then along came you, oh
Guess
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin
As they do
And we're all still just
Stories above concrete
X amount of heartbeats
So thank God for plot twists like you
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Ooh (who could've imagined?)
Ooh (who could've imagined you?)
Ooh (who could've imagined?)
Ooh (who could've imagined you?)
Who could've imagined? (Who could've imagined?)
Who could've imagined you? (Who could've imagined?)
Who could've imagined (who could've imagined?)
Who could've imagined you?
Who could've imagined?
Who could've imagined you?
Who could've imagined?
Who could've imagined you?
Who could've imagined?
Who could've imagined you?
Who could've imagined?
Who could've imagined you?

listening to this during finals season, thank you for maintaining my sanity during these trying times
Drive on [ 23:08 ]
The blades are dull now
The armor's dented
The water's cold and still like us
We shiver badly
Our teeth are chattering
But it's not out of fear this time
'Cause the beasts have scattered
Our story stains the ground
The bloodbath's over now
So drive on, mm
Drive on, on, on
When the tide's low, the rubble's high
We only grow when the light rises
In new horizons
Mm, so, when you go left, hope you see right
It might be dark, so turn your headlights, headlights on
And drive on, mm
Drive on, on, on
So drive on
Oh, children of the moon (children of the moon, children of the moon)
(Children of the moon, children of the moon)
May we grow, may we bloom (children of the moon, children of the moon)
(Children of the moon, children of the moon)
And don't look back, the future
Looks like you and me
So we
Drive on, mm
Drive on, on, on
Drive on, mm
Drive on, on, on
So drive on
Thanks for this "heaven" playlist!
This song's rythm is smoother than my whole life.👍👍
really love this versions!
I love the version with Brian more xD
2024 is about to end, and I'll still listen to this playlist on repeat. Nikis' songs are so underrated. Her songs always ease me no matter the circumstances, that's how beautiful they are.
Why did I end up crying while working? XD I love her songs so much
A love letter from me to myself listening to these kinds of songs expecially to niki whenever she has liked or lost someone; its been a while and im here again but then again, its like im being with a friend ive never seen for a while. You who are me, for you are so brave to go through another heartbreak, big, bad, small, or a little bit out of hand- Im proud of you for always believing in love, I commend you for being stupid to fall again but smart enough to get back up again on your feet to experience life again, the way you see it and always being better , believing to be better and doing for the better brick by brick- youve gone a long journey to be here, those 10 years of your life seeing and feeling the opposite of everything you believe in - oh my dear sweet self, i promise that good days will come, it will come and it will be wonderful, itll be everything youve hoped and think of, but for now, endure it, feel it, feel it everyday until its just another summer cold fall out of love, be the vintage that you are with every person youve loved, let gone, for every losing game, for every joke, every stupid punch line that missed your way to theirs, always remember to drive on the switchblade to get to that plot twist that youre ever wishing to have, and I say this now and for all, that you will get there my love, you will, someday, so dont lose urself for others ever again
love, zai.
LOVE THIS!!! thank you so much for putting this together
Glad you liked the playlist :)
Yoooo thanks for this!!! I've been repeating this playlist for days now and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! 🤩
thank you for repeating! :D
Your voice is sweet and calm
Came for the pictures, stay for the music, thank you very much 😍

Now I can chill and appreciate NIKI more. Thanks man!
🗣🗣
My whole 2022, I've been here almost everyday
"Shouldn't Couldn't Wouldn't"
Mm, mm, yeah
Mm
By now I got your bad habits all memorised
Like when I know you need me most
You go and shut me out, figures, you Gemini
And I'm not sayin' that I've got
All of the answers, but
Boy, I've been in love before
It's not always peachy, look, life ain't that easy
But one thing I know for sure is it
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
You wonder why suddenly I'm comin' off indifferent
What you don't seem to understand is
It's not anything you said, it's everything you didn't
Ooh, oh
Yeah, you, you always answer with
More questions to questions that scare you
We're not always peachy, look, love ain't that easy
But one thing I know, I know it for sure that it
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
I drank too much tonight to not try to call you up
I mean that's what our phones are for
I'm not one for titles, girl, in other words, terrified
That p- kicked my rules out the door
I could take more shots or I could take you off your blouse
My favorite parts of f- is either when
I'm done or when you're walkin' out my house
And you don't pick up when I call unless I call you mine
But one thing I know is it
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
Hard, mm
It's not always peachy, look, love ain't that easy
But one thing I know for sure is
We (shouldn't)
Lose
I will never know if you love me
Or my company, but I don't mind
'Cause I ain't tryna be the one
Been through this a thousand times
I don't need to take your heart
You keep yours, I'll keep mine
All I really know is when I'm lonely
I hate that I'm lonely
And that's why I let you in
And maybe in another life
We fight all day, kiss all night
But I don't wanna break your heart
You keep yours, I'll keep mine
I know
We know better, so we'd both better go
I don't need a reason
To keep on dreamin'
That we don't lose, yeah, what's the use?
I don't need a reason
To keep on dreamin', oh
That we can win at anything at all
Mm
Am I the only one who sees right through this?
Yeah, all this bullshit
Don't play me for no fool
Yeah, you don't gotta lose your mind
Every time I don't call
And I should never have to win your love
Then hate myself when I don't, oh, oh
Fickle as you are
That's exactly why I keep on running back
'Cause I'm brittle at the parts
Where I wish I was strong
And maybe when you need my help
I like myself when it's over
But later in the light, you go
Dark and rogue, and I need closure
And I know
Whatever this is ain't love
So I'm goin'
I'm gonna let you go, let you go
I don't need a reason
To keep on dreamin'
That we don't lose, yeah what's the use?
I don't need a reason
To keep on dreamin'
That I can win this stupid thing called love
Mm, mm, mm
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS COMPILATION!!
i was testing my earphones and here i am wow
im here for study, but ended up crying and singing~
I love all of her songs
I wish this was on spotify :'(
I've been listening this for a lot of times, I love the low key song so much!!
Thank you for making this playlist, because I like Niki's songs and they are good for studying❤
Ah it's really help me, while i'm doing some work. Thank you so much!
THANK YOU SO MUCHHH FOR THIS
Niki is just such a talent with the voice of an angel
This is perfect- thank you for curating and uploading!
This is one of my favorite playlists now!! Thank you 😊
been addicted to this playlist for a week now, great discovery!!
perfect playing this while working. Thank you
While I'm on Sunset, are you on the subway?
While I drive, are you gettin' on the L-train?
I mean, Manhattan's nice, but so are Malibu nights
You would know if you stayed, you would know if you put up a fight
Your toes turn blue in winter, I'm gettin' red, rum
Does the trick for all of the things left unsaid, I'm
Missin' our drunken 2 A.M. strolls in K-Town
Now you're chasing fake highs in the Upper West Side
And fuckin' on Brooklyns in Brooklyn
Your Chelseas in Chelsea
Hope that eases the pain, so you remember to miss me
And you sold your car, now you walk for miles
Bet your feet feel numb
(Crosswalks in my mind are shaky, so please hold on tight)
All my demons run wild
All my demons have your smile
In the city of angels, in the city of angels
Hope New York holds you
Hope it holds you like I do
While my demons stay faithful
In the city of angels
Summer's endin' now and the nights are coolin' down
Remember last winter when we would drive around?
Silverlake, Hollywood, pretty little white lies got me good
Thought this was love, I was misunderstood, mmm
Feelin' low on the low, drivin' through NoHo
If I'm honest, I'd call, but I'm trying to let go
And I hope you're happy, livin' life in taxis
But you'll always have me, you'll always have me
All my demons run wild
All my demons have your smile
In the city of angels, in the city of angels
Hope New York holds you
Hope it holds you like I do
While my demons stay faithful
In the city of angels
This music is really good for healing your bad mood or bad day :) love NIKI'S song

[Chorus]
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin' as they do
[Verse 1]
Look what we got
A thickening plot
Just when I started getting used to
The thought
Of closing the book
There you were, in every nook
Of every word, every page
And now I wanna stay and wait, 'cause
[Pre-Chorus]
Met every comma, every question mark
Bored of how all of the chapters start
But you feel like a brand new arc
That I never knew, oh
Like to think I know a thing or two
Like every day, the sky's a different blue
And then along came you, oh
Guess
[Chorus]
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin' as they do
And we're all still just
Stories above concrete
X amount of heartbeats, so
Thank God for plot twists like you
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
Where have you been
All of my life?
It's all growin' dim now
That you've come to light
And who could've known, who would've thought
Between the wishbones and dot-dot-dots
There was always gonna be you and I
And now
[Pre-Chorus]
Dancing barefoot in the open streets
Hangin' onto every word you speak
'Cause you keep me at the edge of my seat
With your every move, oh
Like to think I know a thing or two
Like every story ending's tried-and-true
And then along came you, oh
Guess
[Chorus]
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin' as they do
And we're all still just
Stories above concrete
X amount of heartbeats, so
Thank God for plot twists like you

Here for the nosedive, whatever you need
And I'm savin' all the bold lines, I'll say 'em while you sleep
You're sleepin' on the wrong side
And I'm turnin' endlessly
Screamin' for my lifeline, lifeline, life
Ooh, continental drifter
Still, I'm the hero of my hometown
Now I'm all laid up with you, sentimental trickster
Maybe in another lifetime, lifetime, life (Oh)
In a strange land, with no plans
Surrounded by doors, yeah
I can't find myself anymore
With foreign people, you're my temple
I want things like they were before
(But I don't know myself anymore)
With you, love was simple
My spiritual crystal
But now life is limbo
I'll wait for tomorrow
Ooh, continental drifter
Still, I'm the hero of my hometown
Now I'm all laid up with you, sentimental trickster
Maybe in another lifetime, lifetime, life (Oh)

I’m feel better now when I hear something like that
DRIVE ON
The blades are dull now
The armour's dented
The water's cold and still like us
We shiver badly
Our teeth are chattering
But it's not out of fear this time
'Cause the beasts have scattered
Our story stains the ground
The bloodbath's over now
So drive on, mm
Drive on, on, on
When the tide's low, the rubble's high
We only grow when the light rises
In new horizons, so
When you go left, hope you see right
It might be dark so turn your headlights
Headlights on
And drive on, mm
Drive on, on, on
So drive on
Oh, children of the moon (children of the moon, children of the moon)
(Children of the moon, children of the moon)
May we grow, oh may we bloom (children of the moon, children of the moon)
(Children of the moon, children of the moon)
And don't look back
The future looks like you and me, so we
Drive on, mm
Drive on, on, on
Drive on, mm
Drive on, on, on
So drive on
[Lowkey]
Wonder what I'll do when the cops come through
And the whiskey's run out
'Cause I've been lookin' at you since half past two
Wanna take this downtown?
This liquid courage got me way too honest
Put your phone on vibrate, let's catch a vibe, babe
While the sun's down
Hush now, I know we're a little too fucked up to stay still, love
Be as quiet as you can, 'cause if anyone sees
They'll just blow shit up
I don't gotta know if you're taken
I'll just let ya know bedroom's vacant
No one's gotta know, just us and the moon 'til the sun starts wakin'
Up's the only direction I see
As long as we keep this
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low-key (ah, ah, ah, ah)
You ain't even gotta lo- lo- lo- lo- lo- lo- lo-love me (ah, ah, ah, ah)
Us in a king-size, keep it a secret
Say I'm your queen, I don't wanna leave this
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low-key
Wizard with words tellin' me my energy's so bewitchin'
So I'll go first, there's an open bar, let's close this distance
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh my, don't make me have to spell it all night
I don't really give a fuck 'bout all the "he said, she said" bullshit
So pick your poison, love, let's go somewhere a little more exclusive
Take a shot, take a chance, take my hand, boy
Tension so intense like an asteroid
Be discreet, gotta dodge all the tabloids
Let's not think too much, there ain't no problems
So long as we keep this
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low-key (ah, ah, ah, ah)
You ain't even gotta lo- lo- lo- lo- lo- lo- lo-love me (ah, ah, ah, ah)
Us in a king-size, keep it a secret
Say I'm your queen, I don't wanna leave this
Low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low-key
low-key, low-key
low-key, low-key
[Strange land]
Here for the nosedive, whatever you need
And I'm savin' all the bold lines, I'll say 'em while you sleep
You're sleepin' on the wrong side
And I'm turnin' endlessly
Screamin' for my lifeline, lifeline, life
Ooh, continental drifter
Still, I'm the hero of my hometown
Now I'm all laid up with you, sentimental trickster
Maybe in another lifetime, lifetime, life (Oh)
In a strange land, with no plans
Surrounded by doors, yeah
I can't find myself anymore
With foreign people, you're my temple
I want things like they were before
(But I don't know myself anymore)
With you, love was simple
My spiritual crystal
But now life is limbo
I'll wait for tomorrow
Ooh, continental drifter
Still, I'm the hero of my hometown
Now I'm all laid up with you, sentimental trickster
Maybe in another lifetime, lifetime, life (Oh)
[Switchable]
This is looking like I might just wanna stay
Can't remember much about yesterday
Ground is glowing, I'm slowing my stride with every step
(Take a good look at it girl, take a good look at this world, ah)
Electric rivers flow by the silhouette trees
We skinny dip and soak in all of our past dreams
And all my new friends dazzle like they're royals
(Take a good look at it girl, take a good look at this world, ah)
What is this place?
The skies are vast and no one's a familiar face
But I'm not afraid
Kinda feeling brave
The winds of change have nothing on this switchblade faith
I'll take it to my grave
Ooh, ooh, ooh
The night is young and it's wild
I'm running free like a child
On the crown of a mountain and I could keep goin' for miles
I don't know what's coming next, I feel a buzz in my legs
But heaven knows that I'm quick on my feet and
Good with a blade and some old-fashioned faith in a place like this
Feeling bulletproof and far from faces I don't miss
So many brand new risks to take
And I'm feeling brave
The winds of change have nothing on this switchblade faith
I'll take it to my grave
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Lining silver, grass is greener and I'm on my way
Brightest flicker, ain't no quitter I'll be here to stay
Lining silver, grass is greener and I'm not afraid
'Cause I'm running with a switchblade
Lining silver, grass is greener and I'm on my way
Brightest flicker, ain't no quitter, I'll be here to stay
Lining silver, grass is greener and I'm not afraid
'Cause I'm running with a switchblade
[la la lost you]
While I'm on Sunset, are you on the subway?
While I drive, are you gettin' on the L-train?
I mean, Manhattan's nice, but so are Malibu nights
You would know if you stayed, you would know if you put up a fight
Your toes turn blue in winter, I'm gettin' red, rum
Does the trick for all of the things left unsaid, I'm
Missin' our drunken 2 A.M. strolls in K-Town
Now you're chasing fake highs in the Upper West Side
And fuckin' on Brooklyns in Brooklyn
Your Chelseas in Chelsea
Hope that eases the pain, so you remember to miss me
And you sold your car, now you walk for miles
Bet your feet feel numb
(Crosswalks in my mind are shaky, so please hold on tight)
All my demons run wild
All my demons have your smile
In the city of angels, in the city of angels
Hope New York holds you
Hope it holds you like I do
While my demons stay faithful
In the city of angels
Summer's endin' now and the nights are coolin' down
Remember last winter when we would drive around?
Silverlake, Hollywood, pretty little white lies got me good
Thought this was love, I was misunderstood, mmm
Feelin' low on the low, drivin' through NoHo
If I'm honest, I'd call, but I'm trying to let go
And I hope you're happy, livin' life in taxis
But you'll always have me, you'll always have me
All my demons run wild
All my demons have your smile
In the city of angels, in the city of angels
Hope New York holds you
Hope it holds you like I do
While my demons stay faithful
In the city of angels
[Shouldn't Couldn't Wouldn't ]
Mm, mm, yeah
Mm
By now I got your bad habits all memorised
Like when I know you need me most
You go and shut me out, figures, you Gemini
And I'm not sayin' that I've got
All of the answers, but
Boy, I've been in love before
It's not always peachy, look, life ain't that easy
But one thing I know for sure is it
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
You wonder why suddenly I'm comin' off indifferent
What you don't seem to understand is
It's not anything you said, it's everything you didn't
Ooh, oh
Yeah, you, you always answer with
More questions to questions that scare you
We're not always peachy, look, love ain't that easy
But one thing I know, I know it for sure that it
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
I drank too much tonight to not try to call you up
I mean that's what our phones are for
I'm not one for titles, girl, in other words, terrified
That p- kicked my rules out the door
I could take more shots or I could take you off your blouse
My favorite parts of f- is either when
I'm done or when you're walkin' out my house
And you don't pick up when I call unless I call you mine
But one thing I know is it
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
Oh-oh-ooh, oh-oh-ooh
Hard, mm
It's not always peachy, look, love ain't that easy
But one thing I know for sure is
We (shouldn't)
[Plot Twist]
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin'
As they do
Look what we got
A thickening plot
Just when I started getting used to
The thought
Of closing the book
There you were, in every nook
Of every word, every page
And now I wanna stay and wait, 'cause
Met every comma, every question mark
Bored of how all of the chapters start
But you feel like a brand new arc
That I never knew, oh
I'd like to think I know a thing or two
Like every day the sky's a different blue
And then along came you, oh
Guess
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin'
As they do
And we're all still just
Stories above concrete
X amount of heartbeats
So thank God for plot twists like you
Ooh, ooh
Ooh (ooh)
Where have you been
All of my life?
It's all growin' dim, now
That you've come to light
And who could've known, who would've thought
Between the wishbones and dot-dot-dots
There was always gonna be you and I
And now
I'm dancing barefoot in the open streets
Hangin' onto every word you speak
'Cause you keep me at the edge of my seat
With your every move, oh
I'd like to think I know a thing or two
Like every story ending's tried-and-true
And then along came you, oh
Guess
Nothing stays the same and
Seasons keep on changin
As they do
And we're all still just
Stories above concrete
X amount of heartbeats
So thank God for plot twists like you
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Ooh (who could've imagined?)
Ooh (who could've imagined you?)
Ooh (who could've imagined?)
Ooh (who could've imagined you?)
Who could've imagined? (Who could've imagined?)
Who could've imagined you? (Who could've imagined?)
Who could've imagined (who could've imagined?)
Who could've imagined you?
Who could've imagined?
Who could've imagined you?
Who could've imagined?
Who could've imagined you?
Who could've imagined?
Who could've imagined you?
Who could've imagined?
