Afterthought

I know damn straight, unless I initiate
I'll sit by the phone and wait
And wind up my own bad date, again

Yeah, I know that everyone else comes first
And baby, that hurts
But I realize on top of your mind I'm not
I'm more an afterthought

Oh well then, you like to call me friend
But I'd rather we don't pretend
That you'll ever call me again, not when

When I know that everything else comes first
And everything hurts
But I realize on top of your mind I'm not
I'm more an afterthought

I would've thought by now I'd know my place in line
And not be feeling burned again yet another time

And so it goes that everything else comes first
And all of it hurts
But I realize on top of your mind I'm not
And maybe much worse
Is that you won't realize you gave a lot less than you got
From your afterthought
