Phone Call

Ch-ch-Chilling – with gurus.
And counting all the heroes between us.
You called me, with a secret
You held out your hand – I just couldn’t keep it.
These phone lines – under currents
Are shifting us apart like a fault line
They’re tearing us apart
CH
How much did this phone call cost us
With all of our phone call hang ups
How much did this phone call cost us
We walk softly, for the neighbours
In the city we’re afraid to be neighbours
So we hold fast – to the old rules
And try to understand why we try to be cool
These phone lines – under concrete
Are shifting us apart like a fault line
They’re tearing us apart
We left love – strung out on – highway crosses
With all of our phone call – hang ups
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Put your phone down, this is urrgent.

Waiting Room

It’s getting late, love
Your work will be waiting
So punch the clock, love
This time is worth saving.
And with a word, love
The world came to its knees
You surrender – you throw your guns down
…And say Wait
And sometimes just to spite, you say
Don’t wait for me.
Just go ahead, now. Don’t look back
Don’t wait for me
It’s getting late, love
Ya - morning has broken.
You fkd my week up
Ya, maybe I’m broken too - ya.
And with a word - love
The world came to its knees
You surrender – you hold your arms up
…And say Wait
And sometimes just to spite, you say
Don’t wait for me.
Just go ahead, now. Don’t look back
Don’t wait for me (x2)
It’s getting late, love
The children have woken
They pull their teeth out
Ya, maybe I’m smiling too, ya
And with a word – love
The world came to its knees
You surrender – you hold your heart up
…And say Wait

Little Lever
03:36

What do you hold on to
Here take that weight of your shoulders
Shed the artefacts that make you feel older
It’s not a fact – it’s just a device
A Little Lever just to make you think twice.
Is it about time – or have you had enough
Carrying weight til your fingers get rough
Another box of photographs –
Captured moments you’d rather forget
Hold on tight
You can’t save it for the next life
But you try
I’m a song you can’t remember
You’re a song I can’t forget.
I’m a part, and you’re together
You’re a song I can’t forget
What do you hold on to with your fingers crossed
Your lucky dice, your mother’s cross
Your sticks and stones, your empty shells
The shampoo bottles that you steal from hotels.
I need a polygraph – to take your advice
I need a love that’ll never think twice
Another box of forgotten maps
Paper routes that you’ll never get back
Hold on tight
You can’t save it for the next life
But you try
I’m a song you can’t remember
You’re a song I can’t forget.
I’m a part, and you’re together
You’re a song I can’t forget

Tellers

Don’t tell the tellers, I been running with the runners.
Don’t tell the tellers, I been running with the runners
Circling the circles, zeroes in on nothing
Don’t tell the tellers – they don’t believe in nothings!
So that I don’t need to be everything I say
So that I don’t need to believe in a better day.
Now my heart’s a knife before it’s a gun
And you say you’re not the only one
C’mon, I’m only having some fun.
Don’t lie with liars, they just keep you up for hours
Don’t lie with liars, they just keep you up for hours.
Talking all your ears off, whispering sweet nothings.
Don’t lie with liars – they don’t believe in nothing!
So that I don’t need to be anything I say.
So that I don’t need to believe in a better way.
And everything you say - Your words get in the way
(Oh, oh-oh)
And everything you say, again (Oh, oh-oh)
