Operator

I wrote it down in secret
Hoping you would read it
And find out just how hopeless I can be
I'm done reasoning with killers
Dragging every river
Looking for the corpse of who I want to be

I know
But please don't go
I need someone to see me

Operator, I can wait
And I don't care if I get through
Am I dying, is this fine? Am I only 22?
I don't wanna make do
I don't wanna hate you
But I do

I don't know how to feel it
Without someone seeing
And God knows I got all the eyes I need
I'm more than just a frightened
Dinosaur at night and
Cowering behind a holy murder scene

I know
I'm alone, but see
I ain't bleeding

Operator, I can wait
I don't care if I get through
Don't believe me, I been leaving
Since the day I noticed you
I don't wanna make do
I don't wanna hate you
But I do

Operator, I can wait
I don't care if I get through
Don't believe me, I been leaving
Since the day I noticed you
I don't wanna make do
I don't wanna hate you
But I do
