Lyrics

Dial Tone

[Verse 1]

Say goodbye to what you know

I've been unhappy

But not in the way that you are expecting when you listen

Steady as a dial tone

I'm the best liar I know and I know a few

Like when I say I had a great day

My room has the clearest view of nothing

Though that's nothing new

[Chorus]

I don't wanna wait up

I don't wanna get older

Everyone I love will leave

And I'II cry on whose shoulder

I wanna see you wake up

I wanna see you get well

I wanna see your whole life

And I never will

[Verse 2]

Recognise your face in cars

You're always smiling

I hope you're happy where you are finally and always

'Cause we're all trying

[Chorus]

I don't wanna wait up

I don't wanna get older

Everyone I love will leave

And I'II cry on whose shoulder

I wanna see you wake up

I wanna see you get well

I wanna see your whole life

And I never will
