Every Time You Called Me About Him, I Wish I'd Hung Up

Every Time You Called Me About Him, I Wish I'd Hung Up

A Poem by AlmostWhatIWant

He doesn't know your favorite color, doesn't care about
How you love the rainy weather, but hey
I'm sure he makes up for that with something I'm not seeing
So could you tell me, because I'm sick of breathing when

You're not calling me anymore, I haven't seen you for four, weeks
And we used to spend almost every day together
You're not doing the things you used to, I can see you, turning
Into whatever he'd like you to be
You're lying when you tell me you're happy

And I know about the time your dad went nuts
Maybe cuz I'm the one you came to, held you all night
And told you by morning everything would be all right
But I'm sure he more than makes up for that with something
So could you tell me please cuz I'm not seeing
(Any reason why)


You're not calling me anymore, I haven't seen you for four, weeks
And we used to spend almost every day together
You're not doing the things you used to, I can see you, turning
Into whatever he'd like you to be
You're lying when you tell me you're happy
You're lying when you tell me

That everything is okay, and it's better off this way
That it's better that we were just friends
That we never let our friendship get messed up
Well I'm pretty messed up anyway
You're lying when you tell me

That everything is okay, and it's better off this way
And it's better that we stayed just friends
Never let romantic feelings mess up our friendship
Well, I'm pretty messed up anyway, I'm not okay,
And I'm done playing side lined kid
(You're lying when you tell me)
I'm done playing side lined best friend
(You're lying when you tell me)
I'm done playing side lined best friend
