Hello? Tring tring
Hello? Is it you?
This is me, have you forgotten my voice?
Does it sound like noise?
Have you blocked me or are you always busy?
Is this me or are you being a sissy?
Do you remember when the notes of my heart lured you to sleep?
Isn't this painful, isn't this deep?
Hello, are you still there?
Or have you hung up?
Like I am, on you.
Like I will, no matter what the time
But don't you worry, I'll be fine
It's not a big deal, I'll just lay supine
And wait for you to ring up on time
Or maybe later, if that's what you prefer
I'm always waiting, hither.
Hello? Hellllo?
Are you there?
Or am I screaming into the silence
Of your tormented heart and ripped up soul
Or am I lingering on the crevices of those unforeseen doors?
I am tired
I really am
No, it's not because of you
But because of the fan
It keeps moving around slowly and slowly and slowly and slowly
And I keep staring at it into the deep night
Waiting for your call
Hello? You still there?
Or have you hung up on me?
It's ok, it's fine
Never mind.
