Answer My Calls

I heard that these pictures on the wall
Could talk you into loosing me
I felt how the sand between your feet
Could undo the happiness in me
I saw how my short comings in life could
Become why people like me
And I tasted the sharpness in your words
When the pictures didn't play the tune you wrote over and over

And I knew I had to get out
Or face the consequences that hung about
And I knew you didn't love me anymore
When you wrote the script that was the shortest of them all
I hope you'd still answer my calls

All alone I was left in the dark
Please can I just ask how you are
Feeling used and feeling torn apart
I don't know what to do
I'm sorry I went too far

But I've got to stand up for myself
A rare occurrence that usually doesn't end well
And I've got to fill these empty halls
With pictures of myself, my friends and all
I hope you'd still answer my calls

I'm just going in circles in my head
Not knowing what's alive or dead
I'm feeling everything at once
Can't keep going like this for months
I don't know how this will end
But I know I can't sleep in my bed
