Backburner

I can't lie, it feels nice that you're calling You sound sad and alone, and you're stalling And for once, I don't care about what you want As long as we keep talking (as long as we're talking) I mean, you gotta admit the history's kind of unmatched Asian Calvinism, we made it out of that Well, whether we're free of will or predestined Clearly, I've not learned my lesson even now Hope He doesn't strike me down (strike me down) The Goo Goo Dolls are dead to me The way you should be too But you bring them up Along with how much I fucking miss you Maybe I'm just not better than this, I haven't tried Maybe life's less romantic when I don't wanna die You'd think I'd be a fast learner But guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner Backburner Your backburner Your backburner Your backburner It's pathetic, but at least you are, too I don't know what to do I don't like anyone except sometimes you And now you're sounding like a hurt puppy You look ugly when you cry But I'm the one you think to call How do you feel lucky and appalled at the same time? After everything you put me through I somehow still believe in you, oh-oh But I know in a week or so You'll fade away again And I wish that I cared Hey, are you still there? Good Maybe I'm just not better than this, I haven't tried 'Cause maybe you'll finally choose me after you've had more time I thought I was a fast learner But guess I won't ever mind, guess I won't ever mind Maybe I blame my mother bleeding into my stride Maybe it was my father and his wandering eyes (It's their fault that) I'll always be in your corner 'Cause I don't feel alive 'til I'm burnin' on your backburner, oh-oh (Backburner, your backburner) And I know that it's sad that I settle for the backburner, oh-oh (your backburner) (Your backburner, your backburner) Guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner, oh-oh (your backburner) (Backburner, your backburner) As long as you still think of me, oh, oh-oh (backburner, backburner)
