Telephone Lines

Описание: LYRICS:
The phone lights up like a fault line
On the edge of my bed
Blue glow cutting the dark in half
I don’t breathe I don’t move yet
Every name feels like a warning
Every second’s too loud
If I don’t touch it
It can’t be real
If I stay still
It stays out

Let it ring in silent
Let the moment pass
Silence feels safer
Than the truth I can’t take back

I don’t wanna answer
I don’t wanna know
Let it buzz into the void
Let it go
If I don’t hear the damage
Maybe it won’t land
Let the world wait outside
Of my hands

Rain tapping time on the window
Like it knows what I’m afraid of
Every call’s a loaded question
Every voice could be the one
I rehearse all the endings
Like they soften the blow
But the fear lives in the ringing
Not the words they’ll say slow

I count cracks in the ceiling
Count breaths till it stops
Suspended in the almost
Where nothing’s lost

I don’t wanna answer
I don’t wanna know
Let it buzz into the void
Let it go
If I don’t hear the damage
Maybe it won’t land
Let the world wait outside
Of my hands

There’s a version of me
That picks up the line
Lets the truth rush in
Like a breaking tide
But I’m hiding in the quiet
Where the pain hasn’t won
Where the worst is still imaginary
And the night isn’t done

One more ring
Then it fades
Heart still racing
But unchanged

If it stops, I can breathe again
If it stops, I’m still okay
Just for now in the silence
I survive the delay
I don’t wanna answer
Not tonight
Let the truth stay on the other side

The ringing turns to droning
The ringing turns to droning
The ringing turns to droning
The ringing turns to droning
The ringing turns to droning
The ringing turns to droning
The ringing turns to droning
The ringing turns to droning
