Scarce Fields - Telephones Lyrics

I can't understand you
You can't understand me
We're just all pretending
It's alright, it's alright

F*ck association
Wasted conversation
Give it up for telephones
We'll get by, we'll get by

I've woken up but I'm still asleep
A text arrives that I can't read
Why can't I talk, what do I need
It's complicated, why proceed

I'm tired of this abashment
Abolish the cooperative
Oh don't you dare reply to me
How could you be so cursory

Arguments
Dying fit
Phone calls missed
Dying fit
Arguments, why'd you take
All the time all away
Phone calls missed, talking loud
Where are we, but no sound
Dying fit, give it time
Wait a bit, time's not right

Sitting at a table
Seen but never followed
Leave a conversation
We'll get by, we'll get by
Feeling like a brick wall
Stare and then just keep on
Words are lost in blank space
Leave the place, leave no trace

Arguments
Dying fit
Phone calls missed
Dying fit
Arguments, why'd you take
All the time all away
Phone calls missed, talking lod
Where are we, but no sound
Dying fit, give it time
Wait a bit, time's not right

Emma
What if i just gave up?
Give it time, give it time
Voices
Texture of a Deborah
Wasted time; I gave up
Bounded time, bounded time

Telephone, telephone
Talking on the telephone
Telephone, telephone
Talking on the telephone
Say you won't, say you won't
Say you won't, you'll never go
Say you won't, say you won't
Say you won't, you'll never go
Telephone, telephone
Talking on the telephone
Telephone, telephone
Talking on the telephone
Say you won't, say you won't
Say you won't, you'll never go
Say you won't, say you won't
Say you won't, you'll never go
Telephone, telephone
Talking on the telephone
Telephone, telephone
Talking on the telephone
Say you won't, say you won't
Say you won't, you'll never go
Say you won't, say you won't
Say you won't, you'll never go
I can't understand you
I can't understand you
You can't understand me
You can't understand me
We're just all pretending
We're just all pretending
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, it's alright
Why'd I even talk to you
I don't know what I was thinking
Why'd I even talk to you
I don't know what I was thinking
Why'd I even talk to you
I don't know what I was thinking
Why'd I even talk to you
Why'd I even talk to you
