why would you call to say nothing
why would you call at all
why would say it's over
when it's only just begun

there's sirens in the background
and static on the line
can you speak a little louder
I've been waiting all this time

let me walk across my apartment
and turn my music down
so I can hear you better can you hear me now

why would you say you're sorry
why do this on the phone
why would you call me driving
when there's tunnels on the road

let me walk across my apartment
and turn my music down
so I can hear you better can you hear me now

oh I
deflect my
pain on to somebody else
now all that's left to learn is the art of self-defense

let me walk across my apartment
and turn my music down
so I can hear you better can you hear me now
