Missed the meeting, missed the meeting
Where my friends discussed why
I’m not around, I’m not around
You say I don’t know who my real friends are
All I know is my real friends aren’t
Talking behind my back, talking behind my back
[Chorus]
Assuming things before they even ask me
Why I’m not behaving like I should
In their mind’s eye, but they don’t even know me
And I don’t think they ever could
Missed the meeting, missed the meeting
Where my friends discussed why
I’m not around, I’m not around
If it’s really important for you to say
Then you can say it to my face
Stop hiding out, stop hiding out
[Chorus]
Maybe you fear what you don’t know
And it hurts too much just to let it go
So instead you make excuses and they turn into demands
I would try to make it up to you but now I don’t think I can
’cause you’re gonna make me pay for what I’ve done to you
Yeah. you’re gonna make me pay for what I’ve put you through
But I don’t want to hear you say what you need from me
When all the things I’ve done don’t pave the way
Missed the meeting
Missed the meeting
Where all my friends discussed why I’m not around
I’m not around
If it’s really important for you to say
Then you can say it to my face
Stop hiding out
Stop hiding out
[Chorus: x2]
