lyrics

Hello, hello, is anyone there?
Have you seen a girl with brunette hair?
She's all I've got throughout despair
I wait for a response, it's always dead air

Don't know if it's insanity or hope but I hold on to this broken radio
The static's comforting enough so until we meet again

I'll remember how we used to look at the sky
Over the airwaves to broken minds
How perfect the world was intertwined to us

Nothing mattered outside our voices
Just you & me & tattered up life choices
We could talk forever if forever was real

Hello, hello, can you hear me now?
I'm getting sick of that dialing crunching sound
But I won't stop until she's found
Even if it's just to put her in the ground

While gazing at these sunbathed trees I swear natures claimed a part of me
Alone's the only way my thoughts are free
But you're always in them

I'll remember how we used to look at the sky
Over the airwaves to broken minds
How perfect the world was intertwined to us

Nothing mattered outside our voices
Just you & me & tattered up life choices
We could talk forever if forever was real

Are you still out there?
Are you looking for me too?
You're not any of the places that I swore I saw you

A vision in the faceless crown but there's no one here
& no one's listening for the call

Hello, hello, can you hear me now?
I'm getting sick of that dialing crunching sound
But I won't stop until she's found
Even if it's just to put her in the ground

Don't know if it's insanity or hope but I hold on to this broken radio
The static's comforting enough so until we meet again.
