Broken at Best - New Phone, Who Dis? (Expiration Date)

Every Friend I make has got an expiration date
They either die or drift away and I'm not sure which one hurts more
Until they're dead and I wish they'd run
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
They'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
I'll get a stranger on the phone
It's weird to hear your voice the same
When everything I know about you changed
We act as though we spoke just yesterday
Nothing changed, same old story brand new day
We'll end the call with "We'll speak soon"
But we both know the truth

You're better off without me,
You're all better off without me,
You're all better off, better off
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 without me
Better off, hope you're better off
I'm better off alone

Everyone I know will someday
Suddenly outgrow 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
Do our best to speak each day
Until there's nothing left to say
Life gets in the way
So we'll drift apart, it's no offense
Because we shook hands with no pretense
We just didn't have the energy
Some day you might hear from me
But I won't call 'till I'm too alone
And I'll get a stranger on the phone
I wonder when you changed your number
losing 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

You're better off without me,
You're all better off without me,
You're all better off, better off
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 without me
Better off, 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
