"Dial Tone" lyrics

"Dial Tone"

Say goodbye to what you know
I've been unhappy
But not in the way that you are expecting when you listen
Steady as a dial tone

I'm the best liar I know and I know a few
Like when I say I had a great day
My room has the clearest view of nothing
Though that's nothing new

I don't wanna wait up
I don't wanna get older
Everyone I love will leave
And I'll cry on whose shoulder
I wanna see you wake up
I wanna see you get well
I wanna see your whole life
And I never will

Recognise your face in cars
You're always smiling
I hope you're happy where you are finally and always
'Cause we're all trying

I don't wanna wait up
I don't wanna get older
Everyone I love will leave
And I'll cry on whose shoulder
I wanna see you wake up
I wanna see you get well
I wanna see your whole life
And I never will
