[Verse 1] I see the group chat glow My name sits in the cold Everybody got a plan But mine just slips through hands I’m the one with the ride I’m the one who knows where I show up every time Still nobody says “you there?” [Pre-Chorus] I watch the dots stop moving My phone just lies there blue I keep a little space In case you come through [Chorus] I’m tired of being the one The one you forget to call Tired of being the one You only need, that’s all (only need, that’s all) If I go quiet, do you notice? If I leave, do you fall? I’m tired of being the one The one you forget to call [Verse 2] I know your birthday cake I know your break-up songs I know the way you look When you’ve been hurt too long But when my name comes up It’s like the room turns thin I’m standing in the doorway Wish someone’d pull me in [Pre-Chorus] I keep my jokes too sharp So nobody sees the ache I laugh before I speak Just to stay awake [Chorus] I’m tired of being the one The one you forget to call Tired of being the one You only need, that’s all (only need, that’s all) If I go quiet, do you notice? If I leave, do you fall? I’m tired of being the one The one you forget to call [Bridge] Maybe I’m not hard to love Maybe I’m just out of sight I don’t need a parade Just ask me once tonight (ask me once tonight) Say my name like you mean it Leave a little room for me I’m not asking for the moon Just somebody checking in [Chorus] I’m tired of being the one The one you forget to call Tired of being the one You only need, that’s all (only need, that’s all) If I go quiet, do you notice? If I leave, do you fall? I’m tired of being the one The one you forget to call
