Do you miss me on your shoulder?
Can you picture us and keep your composure?
As you miss me getting older
I wonder if you even need the closure
Yeah, you call me on my birthday
I'm surprised you know the date in the first place
You show up on all the good days
And when you do, I start to think that you've changed
But every year you let me down the same
Don't say you love me just because
I'm somebody that you're supposed to love
Don't say you're sorry just because
You think the words alone would be enough
'Cause I want you to care
And not because you have to
I wish that you'd be there
And I would never have to ask you
But it feels like I'll never be more than just
Somebody that you're supposed to love
You don't have me on your nightstand
Does anybody ever ask you who I am?
Don't want to question every smile on your face
And all the little promises that you make
There's only so much more that I can take
Don't say you love me just because
I'm somebody that you're supposed to love
Don't say you're sorry just because
You think the words alone would be enough
'Cause I want you to care
And not because you have to
I wish that you'd be there
And I would never have to ask you
But it feels like I'll never be more than just
Somebody that you're supposed to love
When it all gets bad
Or even when you're mad
I'm dying to believe you when you say that I'm all you have
Wish it could be enough
Knowing I share your blood
But I know that I'll never be more than just
Somebody that you're supposed to love
