a moment spent together in solitude.
one more time, one more time
i pleaded silently on opposite end
one more time, one more time
i stretched my mind to hear her again.
you woke me up with a ring, i just wanna hear it again.
you shut me out with a sting, i don’t wanna feel it again.
phones don’t make the same sound when they hang up anymore
no, now it’s just a button but before you heard much more.
a rustle to the resting place where a lever waits to be depressed.
and now buttons touch but faces don’t, however, i digress.
one more time, one more time.
i just wanna hear it one more time, again and again.
woke up with a ring, shut out with a sting
and i make myself make that feeling more than you can pretend.
