Getting up the nerve to call you on the phone
Ask if you are busy
You say you're all alone
Do you wanna come over?
My home is your home
You say, I don't know
I promise I won't call you anymore
I know that I'm a bore
I won't call you anymore
I'm sitting by the ocean
Basking in the spray
Winter winds they lash me
I cannot feel my face
And I wonder if I dove in
Could I find a better place
Among the waves?
The you won't have to call me anymore
I know that it's a chore
Won't have to call me anymore
No one's left to help me
I pushed them all way
Thought I was a cancer
With nothing more to say
And I think about them often
And all the twisted ways
I made them scared to stay
Now they don't call me anymore
What am I staying for?
They don't call me anymore
It feels like I am drowning
I'm choking in the brine
But when I see the surface
It sickens me to find
That they all walk the waters
As if they were divine
Oh is that alright?
When I reached out for some help
I dragged them down with me
I soiled their fine silks
And clouded everything they see
All the things that in the past
She would do to me
Oh it hurts to be
I lie awake some evenings
Just to hear you breathe
I kiss your precious forehead
Run my thumb along your cheek
And for the first time in my life
I can think about next week
And be spared the agony
You don't need to call me anymore
I found some solid floor
Don't need to call me anymore
You don't need to call me anymore
Though I'm happy if you do
Your love it opened up the door
And my shackles are removed
And though I thought that I had tore
My tapestry with you
I know I will see this through
