"Call Waiting" lyrics

The last time that I was here
There were wildfires
Sat on our balconies
Amidst the smoky spires
And far below they all grew old
They all built their funeral pyres
On expiry dates of our desires

It's in our skin, let it decay

Whoa
I want my legacy to be
All the things you didn't keep
Every goddamn stage of grief
Whoa
I'm working hard on empathy
And all the rot inside of me
Never the man I'm meant to be

Never the man I'm meant to be

Waste away in bed this morning
The band is on and it's still storming
I think I'll call in sick to work
(I think I'll call in sick to work)
Pillow talk of global warming
Side effects, and dire warning
The slow decline of my self-worth

It's in our skin, let it decay

Whoa
I want my legacy to be
All the things you didn't keep
Every goddamn stage of grief
Whoa
I'm working hard on empathy
And all the rot inside of me
Never the man I'm meant to be

We're sorry, your call cannot be completed as dialed or the number has been disconnected
Please check the number and dial again

Rod Hull forgot to take my call
He's not coming after all
Whether I run or walk or crawl
Rod Hull forgot to take my call
It's been way too fucking long
And he's yet to prove me wrong

Never the man I'm meant to be
I want my legacy to be
All the things you didn't keep
Every goddamn stage of grief
Whoa
I'm working hard on empathy
And all the rot inside of me
Never the man I'm meant to be
