No one's picking up the phone
I think they might have changed lines
I wonder if it's my fault
I'm not the easiest at times
No gentle conversations
All my small talk is despair
I can't change, trust me I tried
And I can't make you start to care
Why don't I ever
Get invited to your parties?
There was a time
You and I got along
That's me up on the stage
No eye contact, head down on the page
Someone died in that song
Not something you wanted me to play
These great expectations
A pearl necklace of delusions
At the end of the night
I go home with new disillusions
Why don't I ever
Get invited to your parties?
There was a time
You and I got along
I want to go out tonight
But no one there will talk to me
And I'd rather spend my night
Drinking my weight in apathy
I knew how to lie to myself
Paint a picture so close to the truth
Then I could stop hurting myself
Trying to mean something to you
Why don't I ever
Get invited to your parties?
There was a time
You and I got along
