San Francisco Payphone - Catch 22

One year ago today i tossed away

A quarter that i should have saved

I faked a farewell fantasy and misbehaved

I never made an effort

My conscience went after all the time a spent

Dollars that i dropped on you

Thought you’d say you missed me too

So here i am, a friend, in the end i meant

To disregarded that birthday card

Nailed upon your wall he sent

I meant to turn my eyes from everything i shouldn’t see

An oath I took, you kissed my cheek

Cried yourself to sleep, but never would you admit to me

I always laughed when you laughed

Cried when you cried, danced when you danced

I lied, laugh when you laugh

Cry when you cry, dance when you dance

I lied

San Francisco pay-phone.

So far from home

So many friends, and I’m alone

I faked a farewell fantasy.

I lied.

You bother me

My conscience gone.

This conversation’s dragging on

There was once upon a time when you… would miss me too

So here I am, a friend, the end

I meant to disregard that birthday card

Nailed upon your wall he sent

I meant to turn my eyes from everything

Never made a promise

An oath I took, I kissed your cheek

Cried myself to sleep, I won’t admit that you see

I always laughed when you laughed

Cried when you cried

Danced when you danced

I lied

Laugh when you laugh

Cry when you cry

Dance when you dance

I lied

I lied

I lied

I lied

I lied
