I Must Be Hateful
I can't make the damn phone ring
It's simply pathetic if I call you anymore
But I can't figure it now we tallied our scores
I got knocked out
I know when you come to town
I know where you drop your dime and whom it's for
I'm not good enough to share your cup of coffee
15 years was long enough
Look at me I'm an old colleague
Another hard knocks day acquaintance
Finally you are free of me
It must be true or you'd give a minute
But it's always my fault
Always it's your forgiveness
This unbalanced resolve
I must be hateful
So I hang up the phone, call it a small sacrifice
You still hear me now
Dear you the vinyl it was blue
Stalking poor Blake commiserating drunks at sea
Do you remember when Jawbreaker rocked "The boat"?
I'm sure you do and don't
Look at me I'm an old fly buddy
Another blue coach class acquaintance
Finally you are free of me It must be true 'cause it only makes sense
But I can still see you now
Pictures are in every town
I will still write this down
"I must be hateful"
So I hang up that phone even at those lofty heights
You still hear me
Can you still hear me?
You still hear me now
