2:17

You called me “boobie,” said it like I meant something to you,
Said I was the only one you wanted,
Late nights, your phone lit up,
You said it was only a friend.

You were stuck with that weight on your foot,
Said I’m the only one you need,
I let myself believe that truth—
Now I know I was just used.

Phone lights up—you turn away,
Same excuse you always say,
“It’s nothing, don’t overthink,”
I just lay there, don’t say a thing.

NOW I SEE THAT ITS MORE THAN A FRIEND!!!

[Chorus – chant heavy]

2:17 — IT’S NOTHING
2:17 — IT’S NOTHING
That’s what you said every night to me—
But that don’t mean what it used to mean.

2:17 — STILL BUZZING
2:17 — STILL LYING
I was right there in your bed—
While you chose them instead.

⸻

[Verse 2]
Exes calling, you let it ring,
Acting like it’s not a thing,
Laugh it off, say I’m insane—
Put that weight back on my name.

Then I saw that name come through,
My own blood—yeah, that was you,
Tell me how I’m supposed to stay—
When you throw it all away.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
Say I’m crazy, say I’m wrong,
Say it till I play along,
I stayed quiet, I stayed blind—
Just to keep you as mine.

⸻

[Chorus – bigger chant]

2:17 — IT’S NOTHING
2:17 — IT’S NOTHING
Every time you said that line—
Something in me fucking died.

2:17 — STILL BUZZING
2:17 — STILL LYING
You were never really mine—
I just needed more time.

⸻

[Bridge – stripped, repetitive]
You said “stay” — I stayed.
You said “wait” — I waited.
You said “trust me” — I did.
You said “nothing” — I believed it.

You said “best friend” — I held it.
You said “forever” — I felt it.
You said “nothing” — again…
And again…
And again…

⸻

[Breakdown – chant + hits]

IT’S. NOT. NOTHING.
IT’S. NOT. NOTHING.

MY OWN BLOOD—
YOU CROSSED THAT LINE.

IT’S. NOT. NOTHING.
IT’S. NOT. NOTHING.

I WAS YOURS—
YOU WERE NEVER MINE…… BLEGH!!!!!!!! 

⸻

[Final Chorus – anthemic chant]
2:17 — I HEAR IT
2:17 — I HATE IT
Every time that phone would light—
I should’ve left that night.

2:17 — NO WARNING
2:17 — NO FEELING
Now I see what you’ve been—
You were never my best friend.

⸻

[Outro – gang vocal fade]
IT’S NOT NOTHING
IT’S NOT NOTHING
IT’S NOT NOTHING

(soft)
It was everything.
