In Case of Emergency

You got my number in your favorites
I'm second on the list, right there behind your mom
You made me 27 playlists
Swear, there was one to fit like every single kick you were on
I don't know why I listen to those songs that I don't like
Maybe it reminds me of the time that it felt right
Try and tell myself it's not exactly what it looks like
Now it looks like

I'm only a contingency
Livin' in the pocket of your ripped up jeans
Save me like a backup plan
You don't want me 'til your friends leave
You're drunk and alone in your room by the phone
So you call me
Actin' like it's my responsibility
Half past three, 'cause you need me and you're lonely
And I'm yours to keep in case of emergency

You only want me on the down low
You introduced me as a friend like I'm just your little secret
Then convince me that I'm special, when it's just you and me
I almost start to think that you might even mean it
It's written all over the promises you make
You say, you want forever when you really want space
Just be honest with me, do you love me?
Or do you love the company?

Am I only a contingency?
Livin' in the pocket of your ripped up jeans
Save me like a backup plan
You don't want me 'til your friends leave
You're drunk and alone in your room by the phone
So you call me
Actin' like it's my responsibility
Half past three, 'cause you need me and you're lonely
And I'm yours to keep in case of emergency

I'm only a contingency
Keep me like a backup
Keep me like a backup plan
Livin' in the pocket of your ripped up jeans

I don't know why I let you get away with this for so long
Guess that I was hopin' you would prove all of my doubts wrong
I told myself that you would change if I was patient
But I should face it

I'm only a contingency
Livin' in the pocket of your ripped up jeans
Save me like a backup plan
You don't want me 'til your friends leave
You're drunk and alone in your room by the phone
So you call me
Actin' like it's my responsibility
Half past three, 'cause you need me and you're lonely
And I'm yours to keep in case of emergency

I'm only a contingency
Keep me like a backup
Keep me like a backup plan
Livin' in the pocket of your ripped up jeans

In case of emergency!
