Why’d You Only Call Me When You’re High? Lyrics by merci, mercy

 

The mirror’s image tells me it’s home time
But I’m not finished, ’cause you’re not by my side
And as I arrived, I thought I saw you leaving, carrying your shoes
Decided that once again I was just dreaming of bumping into you

Now it’s three in the morning and I’m trying to change your mind
Left you multiple missed calls and to my message you replied
“Why’d you only call me when you’re high?”
“Hi, why’d you only call me when you’re high?”

Somewhere darker, talking the same shit
I need a partner, well, “Are you out tonight?”
It’s harder and harder to get you to listen
More I get through the gears
Incapable of making alright decisions
And having bad ideas

Now it’s three in the morning and I’m trying to change your mind
Left you multiple missed calls, to my message you replied
“Why’d you only call me when you’re high?”
“Hi, why’d you only call me when you’re high?”

And I can’t see you here, wondering where I might
It sort of feels like I’m running out of time
I haven’t found what I was hoping to find
You said you gotta be up in the morning
Gonna have an early night
“You’re starting to bore me, baby
Why’d you only call me when you’re high?”

“Why’d you only ever phone me when you’re high?
Why’d you only ever phone me when you’re high?
Why’d you only ever phone me when you’re high?
Why’d you only ever phone me when you’re high?”
