The "You are not my friend" line shows up in a lot of places ... like in Whole Lotta Trouble and Thousand Days. She can't have one person be both a friend and a lover. It also looks like she might have written this ... or thought of it ... while someone was sleeping next to her.

I totally agree Farrah!
I think it totally is a response to her naturally Gemini behavior! I think Stevie is a restless soul...not in a bad way, but in a way that she is always moving forward, looking for new ways of doing things, new experiences, better ways of living, a sense of inner peace. And I like your point on how it sounds like she wrote while sleeping next to someone, that's neat, and I can totally see it.
