A Phonecall

(album: 02:00 AM - 2016)

Pick me up
It's no fun
Getting drunk when you aren't around

These people I'm surrounded by
I used to know
But I don't know right now

It's sad to think
That if we drink
We're all mates but won't be when the sun's up

Think we're free but we're naive
No one knows who we'll be
Casually avoiding questions we don't know the answers to
Years and I'll be someone else
Think that I'm alright without
Avoid the subject if it helps
If you don't want to think about that
I'm okay with escape
And drawn to things that change

Maybe we'll get together
In a few years' time
You'll ask me how my life is going
Maybe I'll have to lie
To make myself sound impressive
Just in case you're fine

I could be famous but I could be sleeping on the streets
You'll walk by, won't meet my eye
Oblivious, drop change at my feet
There's some inside feeling that and none of us have got a clue

What's the point in working for
Something you're not ready for
I feel my best
My head's a mess
And I don't have to think about
What people think of me
But recently I don't care anymore
I wanna be adored but what for
When I'm not anyone
I've got so much to say
I sound insane half the time
It'll all be fine

Maybe we'll get together in a few years' time
You'll ask me how my life is going
Maybe I'll have to lie
To make myself seem impressive
Just in case you're fine

Don't you think that maybe
This is all gonna change
I really feel it's impossible for it to all stay the same

Change can be an ugly thing when it takes something as beautiful as this
I keep telling myself it'll be fine
It'll all be fine
It'll all be fine
Alright
Fine
