Used to Call

Broken down,
laying outside on the ground.
Spinning 'round my head.
All the words unsaid

soak in now,
with the rain coming down.
No linguistic acrobat
will ever bring you back.

So you stay
23 miles away from me.
I put it in drive and I'm ready to go.
Broke, 'cause you want more than I make.
You're not sitting inside to wait for me.
Passed your house and head out on my own.

You used to call,
you used to call my name.
You used to call,
and I would take the blame.

One last round.
You're showing up now just to hear me out,
so I can lift up my head for once

Choking out
Your apology sounds.
But it's too late, you took too long.
It's too complicated now.

So you stay
23 miles away from me.
I put it in drive cause I'm ready to go.
Broke, and you want more than I make.
You're not sitting inside to wait for me.
Passed your house and head out on my own.

You used to call
You used to call my name
You used to call
And I would take the blame.

In the end,
you play pretend,
wear your Sunday best,
and everything is okay.

In the end,
you wave and then
get your wedding dress
and float away.

All my lines are spoken for,
grab my keys and lock the door.

You used to call my name.
And I would take the blame.
