Lyrics
When I ask if you want to spend the day with me
Asking if the person wants to spend time together.
You say, "Sure, I've got nowhere else to be"
The person agrees, indicating a lack of other plans.
I'll take being the last one on your mind
Acceptance of being a low priority in the person's thoughts.
Still squeeze me in, never cared about waiting on your line
Despite being a lower priority, still being included in plans.
And I remember the days you'd break my heart in other ways
Reflecting on past instances of emotional pain caused by the person.
Before you said we'd keep in touch
Recalling promises of keeping in touch made by the person.
Before you said we'd keep in touch
-I don't hear from you too much
Expressing disappointment about infrequent communication.
If you need to call me
Offering an invitation to call when needed.
I'm too weak to hold your grudge
Admitting vulnerability by being unable to hold a grudge.
When I ask you, "Are you seeing the same guy?"
Inquiring about the person's current romantic involvement.
You seem confident he's sticking around this time
Noting the person's confidence in the stability of their current relationship.
I'll take being the last one that you call
Accepting the role of being the last contact in the person's list.
You're Black Friday and I'm going to the mall
Metaphorically comparing the relationship to Black Friday and shopping at the mall.
And I remember the days you'd break my heart with just a face
Recalling past emotional pain inflicted by the person through appearance.
Before you said we'd keep in touch
Reiterating promises of keeping in touch, highlighting the lack of follow-through.
Before you said we'd keep in touch
-I don't hear from you too much
Expressing continued disappointment in the lack of communication.
If you need to call me
Reiterating the availability for a call.
I'm too weak
Admitting emotional vulnerability.
Before you said we'd keep in touch
Repetition of unfulfilled promises of keeping in touch.
Before you said we'd keep in touch
-I don't hear from you too much
Continued disappointment in the infrequency of communication.
If you need to call me
Offering availability for a call despite emotional vulnerability.
I'm too weak to hold a grudge
Reiterating the inability to hold a grudge due to emotional weakness.
Before you said we'd keep in touch
Repetition of unfulfilled promises, emphasizing the lack of follow-through.
Before you said we'd keep in touch
-Before you said we'd keep in touch
