"Cut The Cord" lyrics
Canadian Softball Lyrics
(feat. Hotel Books)
I never thought from all I've been taught
That this would end as a failed connection, a failed expression
Of what I thought would be a way for me to escape, but now
I'm just here to wait hoping fate won't dictate the inevitable
This just feels like static stuck with
No way to connect to this habit, this adapted rapture
Free time falls back in line with the last of it
But I can still hear her
Flipping through channels of my mind hoping to understand
Why this couldn't be the solution of my needs and having
To say goodbye, sending my last words through a telephone
Hoping the cords will make it from my home to her ear
What I thought would be a three year commitment ended
When someone more persistent promised to make things easier
Now I feel so many tears for her as she spoke softly almost in a
Whisper and I replied, I won't hit nine
I'll just leave a voicemail here, I fear we're at the end and now
This connection no longer seems clear, I hate to demote to the last
Hope, without a universal way to put this power to this
I feel like I'm stuck without a remote and no access to a package
Beyond the basics, so let's face it, you didn't care about me
As much as you said you would before I made this commitment
And that's life, I guess, but I'll face it, because what option do
I have now that this analog relationship feels so outdated?
You used to be where I would turn to after a
Day of hard work, an hour of sifting through monotonous misused
Paper work and fakes and jerks pretending
To understand me like you do, it's true
All that I saw in you was so vibrant and true
I felt like Ted Danson, Tony Danza, Matthew Broderick
And Mel Brooks could all be seen in you and that's something I
Could never say for the women I tried to relate to, but I still can't
Seem to thank you, because despite the memories of late nights
With you, this is now just an unmoving static
And I can't handle it
So I'll make it quick and I'll make it quiet
No need for a final broadcast, I never want to see you
Because there's no love when it's just a pay-per-view
When you get this voicemail, don't call back, it's too late for that
I'm already with someone else, as a matter of fact
So I'll just come out, and say I'm leaving
No drama, I'll make it fast
My customer code is 77892, and I would like to discontinue
My cable services with Comcast...
That this would end as a failed connection, a failed expression
Of what I thought would be a way for me to escape, but now
I'm just here to wait hoping fate won't dictate the inevitable
This just feels like static stuck with
No way to connect to this habit, this adapted rapture
Free time falls back in line with the last of it
But I can still hear her
Flipping through channels of my mind hoping to understand
Why this couldn't be the solution of my needs and having
To say goodbye, sending my last words through a telephone
Hoping the cords will make it from my home to her ear
What I thought would be a three year commitment ended
When someone more persistent promised to make things easier
Now I feel so many tears for her as she spoke softly almost in a
Whisper and I replied, I won't hit nine
I'll just leave a voicemail here, I fear we're at the end and now
This connection no longer seems clear, I hate to demote to the last
Hope, without a universal way to put this power to this
I feel like I'm stuck without a remote and no access to a package
Beyond the basics, so let's face it, you didn't care about me
As much as you said you would before I made this commitment
