I call you up every once in a while
To let you know that I'm doing fine
When we both know that that's a lie
And in the back of my mind, I wonder
"Why do I waste your time?"
You call me up every once in a while
To ask me if I wanna spend the night
And we'll pretend like it's the only time
But in the back of your mind, you wonder
Why do you waste my time?
Cuz we both know that I can't change
And you just can't seem to stay the same
Don't act so damn surprised
In the back of our minds, we wonder
Why do we waste our time
I call you up every once in a while
To let you know that I'm doing fine
Don't believe such a bold-faced lie
In the back of my mind, I wonder
"Why do I waste your time?"
I call you up every once in a while
