It's only cables that tie me to you now Everytime I try to contact you I get shocked My phone sits there on the coffee table, but it mys as well be my noose Every text message I sent was just time spent induced The idea of being with you is so abstract light bends obtuse But we tried government and it became to powerful Our markets were privatized and our thoughts of trade were never exchanged Oland our military minds built thought tanks from broken memories I remember those October clouds were like the fog of war When the sky ripped open and tore the ozone The conflict was swift but it would take time to repair it You won the battle though, and your sovereignty became apparent And here I am with this telephone just calling in air strikes Missing every time Because you don't care
