NIKI - Backburner

[00:10.70] I can't lie, it feels nice that you're calling

[00:16.28] You sound sad and alone and you're stalling

[00:22.12] And for once, I don't care about what you want

[00:26.91] As long as we keep talking

[00:29.83] (As long as we're talking)

[00:33.02] I mean, you gotta admit the history's kind of unmatched

[00:38.33] Asian Calvinism-, we made it out of that

[00:44.70] Well, whether we're free of will or predestined

[00:47.88] Clearly I've not learned my lesson even now

[00:52.14] Hope He doesn't strike me down (Strike me down)

[00:56.66] The Goo Goo Dolls are dead to me

[00:59.59] The way you should be too

[01:01.97] But you bring them up

[01:04.63] Along with how much I fucking miss you

[01:09.94] Maybe I'm just not better than this, I haven't tried

[01:15.51] Maybe life's less romantic when I don't wanna die

[01:21.90] You'd think I'd be a fast learner

[01:24.55] But guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner

[01:31.99] Your backburner

[01:34.64] Your backburner

[01:37.56] Your backburner

[01:40.22] Your backburner

[01:42.09] It's pathetic but at least, you are too

[01:46.33] I don't know what to do

[01:49.25] I don't like anyone except sometimes you

[01:53.49] And now you're sounding like a hurt puppy

[01:56.43] You look ugly when you cry

[01:59.34] But I'm the one you think to call

[02:02.00] How do you feel lucky and appalled at the same time?

[02:06.26] After everything you put me through

[02:09.43] I somehow still believe in you, oh

[02:16.87] But I know in a week or so

[02:19.80] You'll fade away again

[02:21.75] And I wish that I cared

[02:24.93] Hey, are you still there?

[02:27.86] Good

[02:29.73] Maybe I'm just not better than this, I haven't tried

[02:35.56] 'Cause maybe you'll finally choose me after you've had more time

[02:41.93] I thought I was a fast learner

[02:44.60] But guess I won't ever mind, guess I won't ever mind

[02:52.83] Maybe I blame my mother bleeding into my stride

[02:58.40] Maybe it was my father and his wandering eyes

[03:03.89] (It's their fault that) I'll always be in your corner

[03:07.61] 'Cause I don't feel alive till I'm burning on your backburner, oh (Your backburner, your backburner)

[03:18.95] And I know that it's sad that I settle for the backburner (Your backburner, your backburner)

[03:26.39] (Your backburner, your backburner) Oh

[03:30.64] Guess I won't ever mind crisping up on your backburner (Your backburner, your backburner)

[03:37.28] (Your backburner, your backburner) Oh

[03:41.26] As long as you still think of me, oh (Your backburner, your backburner)
