On the other side of the line
It's ringing.
The words runs in your head.
Connected.
She hears him.
She goes mum.

On the other side of the line
She tells you, be strong.
You don't say a word.
But you know you appreciate.

On the other side of the line
Call waiting.
She gets paranoid.
He picks up.
She's a monster.

On the other side of the line
It's ringing.
Still ringing.
She tries to reach over.
Disconnected.

On the other side of the line
He presses you to say what's on your mind.
You try.
But the words won't come out.
You cry.
Good night.

On the other side of the line
She knows it's too much.
She knows you're lost.
She knows you've lost.

On the other side of the line
She tells you everything right down to the bottom of her soul.
She tells you if she could stop feeling anything at all.
Crying.
She tells you.
You wouldn't know it.
Cause the line's been dead all these while.

On the other side of the line.
