Pick Up the Phone Video (MV)

It's been days since we've spoken
Last time on the telephone
I heard your stuttering voice
Your heavy breath and
I choked up on the words
The message that you left behind
I was the first to break the silence on the line
White noise and crackle
I feel it breaking me up inside
This emptiness is so heavy
Don't think my bones can survive
With the weight
Pulling me down
Who knew a single sentence could be so profound?
Would it be better like that
If you'd just left fast
And not given me the chance
To turn my thoughts over in my head?
But how was I to know
That that's how it would it go?
Just in the future
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Just in the future
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Accepted this ending
I didn't even put up a fight
Resisted arguing
Keep asking myself what might have occurred
Had I just asked why?
Instead I'll keep wondering
Looking for something
To ease this pain a ring in my ears
Tinnitus - all that I hear
Questioning reality
Is what I'm hearing just inside of me?
No comfort in your voice anymore
Reminding me of times from before
When things played out so differently
And now you've left me feeling incomplete
Would it be better like that
If you'd just left fast
And not given me the chance
To turn my thoughts over in my head?
But how was I to know
That that's how it would it go?
Just in the future
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Just in the future
Remind me not to pick up the phone
Would it be better like that
If you'd just left fast
And not given me the chance
To turn my thoughts over in my head?
But how was I to know
That that's how it would it go?
Just in the future
Remind me not to pick up the phone
