On The Line

Red Roof Inn

Rain on the window

Free breakfast

An American cliché

The emptiness

Distractions of hope

Mind wanders while I pretend to stay

Why do I give you the satisfaction of knowing I still care?

You only call when it's your love on the line

Room above me

They're having sex

With the TV up to drown out the noise

That's just like this world we're in

We cover up each truth with a void

Why do I give you the satisfaction of knowing I still care?

You only call when it's your love on the line

You only call when it's your love on the line

I've gotten used to moving on

Air fresheners dangling in my mirror

If you only knew how far I've gone

How far I'll go to avoid these tears

Still I give you the satisfaction of knowing I still care

And you only call when it's your love on the line

You only call when it's your love on the line
