Lyrics:
Well I guess Iām that friend
The one walking three steps behind causeā the sidewalkās not wide enough and my friends talk on by
Never included in the conversation
Iām the king of my plane of existence
I guess Iām a ghost
Alone and my friends and I arenāt close causeā they think Iām a burden so I donāt let my feelings show
They forgot when it was my birthday
At least the tears in my cake were gourmet
Iām tired of being last pick
Treated like a side chick
A background character for all of my life
Well I guess Iām that friend and my friends just pretend that Iām somebody that they like
I guess Iām that friend
The one that hangs with the group that aināt close enough to anyone to have someone to talk to
I got friends but Iām still lonely
If we played the quiet game Iād win all the trophies
I guess I just exist
Iām not missed no one seems to even notice that Iām listening I got feelings and I aināt very outspoken
They forgot to invite me to the party
Got a text like āwe forgot you weāre sorry!ā
Iām tired of being last pick
Treated like a side chick
A background character for all of my life
Well I guess Iām that friend and my friends just pretend that Iām somebody that they like
Donāt wanna be your door mat
Not someone you can step on
Just hear me out before I leave
Donāt wanna be invisible
This friendship is so miserable
Iām someone you donāt want or need
Iām tired of being last pick
Treated like a side chick
A background character for all of my life
Well I guess Iām that friend and my friends just pretend that Iām somebody that they like

I love how he's singing about being a side character while being a main character šā¤ļø

How... how did it take me this long to realize I'd never heard a song that accurately depicts my friendship relationships like this one does? I became emotionally distant and ended up isolating myself from people because I was 'that friend'. It's a real tough place to be in, and once those walls are up, it can take a hell of a lot to bring them back down. I now have four people I would (mostly) solidly call a 'friend', but I still have fears over friendships. I worry that I'm not saying enough, or saying too much. Worry that I'll say the wrong thing, push them away, or that if I don't reply, they'll leave me behind but, the thing is; they're the same. They, I think, were also 'that friend' and somehow, someway, we found each other, and I'm so fucking grateful for that.
So, I guess, what I'm trying to say is, if you are 'that friend', don't lose hope. There is nothing wrong with you, and it's okay if you leave behind the people who would leave you, because one day, you'll find your tribe, and they'll get it, and they'll stay.

I love his tunes. I love that I can hear the lyrics clearly when he sings bc you donāt get that from a lot of singers now. His voice, IMMACULATE. I love the fact that he just does it and makes other people happy. Idk what Iāll do w out your songsššš

I'm 14 and I'm going through a really dark place right now..I've done some things im not proud of and I hate myself and the way I feel about certain things and that's really not helpful because there's a lot of depressing stuff going on. People in these comment sections are so friendly and supportive and I know its stupid to be thanking random strangers on the internet but thank you everyone who spends their time replying, and thank you mad tsai for giving me a space where I can share my feelings without being judged <3
Edit : thank you so much for the wholesome replies. Some are being so accepting and others can relate. To all these people, y'all deserve the worldš„ŗā¤

It's my first time to hear this song and I can say from my own experience that the lyrics accurately describes my past friendship. I was "that friend" back then, but eventually, I've got tired from living that way so I decided to stay alone. Yeah, I isolated myself because that's when I realized that it's better to be alone than to be with those people who often make you feel alone.
Indeed, it felt better. It's way more peaceful.
And now I'm contented with my current friends whom I treasure dearly even though we barely communicate because of being busy in our personal lives.
So here's my piece of what I have learned:
Never settle for less. It isn't selfish for wanting to feel valued. Just be true to yourself, because you attract what you project and not what you just want.
If you are "that friend", please choose your support system wisely. Don't be afraid to be alone if that means staying away from fake ones. You are too precious. You deserve to be with the genuine ones. āŗļø

It's just people in these comment sections are so friendly and helpful and I know its stupid to be thanking random strangers in the Internet but thank you everyone who spends their time replying to us broken creatures, and thank you mad tsai for giving me a safe space I've been so desperate for <3

Caitlyn Phu KILLED the directing/editing on this and I want to give her a kiss

Bro i just saw a reel with this song and immediately jumped here for the full version. I'm about to cry, trying to hold the tears in rn. All I'd say is that this is the best song that can describe my social life. I sometimes feel so overwhelmed thinking about all this, and want to share it with someone. But i realise, that I have no one. I do have an online friend who's very nice to me, but i don't want to be a burden on the only person I talk with by crying in front of them. I just write it all in my diary, pretending I'm writing a letter to my future self. And i read my old diary entries, pretending I'm reading a letter from my past self, explaining her situation to me
