Lyrics
Every friend I make has got an expiration date
They'll either die or drift away
And I'm not sure
Which one hurts more
Until they're dead
And I wish they'd run to somewhere
Making friends with someone who'll remember all their birthdays
Never fails to send a card
To keep in touch is hard
So I make friends with no pretenses
We'll drift apart, it's no offense
Just didn't have the energy
Someday you might hear from me
But I won't call 'til I'm too alone
And I'll get a stranger on the phone
It's weird, they hear your voice the same
When everything I know about you changed
We act as though we spoke just yesterday
Nothing's changed
Same old story
Brand-new day
We end the call
When we'll speak soon
We both know the truth
Is you're better off without me?
You're better off without me
You're all better off, better off
You're all better off
And I'm better off alone
Better off without me
I know you're better off without me
I hope you're better off, better off
Hope you're better off
Better off alone
Everyone I know will someday
Suddenly outgrown me some way
I'll be left alone to bide my time
I'll be fine until I'm not
And I'll make new friends
We'll hang out every weekend
We'll do our best to speak each day
Until there's nothing left to say
Life gets in the way
So we drift away, it's no offense
Because we shook hands with no pretense
We just didn't have the energy
Someday you might hear from me
But I won't call 'til I'm too alone
Or get a stranger on the phone
I'll wonder when you changed your number
Who's in touch is such a bummer, but
I act as though I don't need
Anyone or anything
There's nothing friendship does for me, because
I feel I'm still alone
In company
Something must be wrong with me
So you're better off without me
You're better off without me
You're all better off, better off
You're all better off
And I'm better off alone
Better off without me
I know you're better off without me
I hope you're better off, better off
I hope you're better off
I'm better off alone
Every friend I make has got an expiration date
They'll either die or drift away
And I'm not sure
Which one hurts more
Until they're dead
