you fell asleep while on the phone
mumbling about being alone
how no one cares what you're going through
i see you're desperate to connect
but you went down with the wreck
now you're desperate for a single breath
you're watching every other scene
and coming to me in between
with little notes that end up in the trash
and i'm a part of every word
a never ending mental bore
and so you send me off to pull the cord
i try to answer every call
but fucking christ i need a break
from every slight you think i'm supposed to take
cos i can only dim the view
of what you think is useful art
i can't help you finish what you start
