about
A production staple of the whole record, this song is about addiction to a toxic relationship, and the inability to end it. Ghostly harmonies, sparkling guitars, an infectious beat that keeps morphing the whole way through. Fascinating and futuristic guitar work that brings to mind Ennio Morricone and fuzzed-out Danny Gatton. Huge dynamic range and a big hook where the singer’s inner conscience is urging the right course of action.
lyrics
You always said that our love
Would last forever and ever
But you picked me out of a grocery list
How clever, I should've known
Now I see that you're calling me
I'm too afraid to answer
(Baby you don't need to trouble, let it keep ringing)
You don't know what you saw in
Me and you found a better dancer
Oh no
Hang up
Well I wish I did
Hang up
You know I really did try
Hang up
Oh I wish I did, instead I just sat there and cried
Do you remember the day when
I lost my strength, I felt so low
You told me weakness is all I'll
Ever be and all I'll ever know
Oh well at least I tried
Hang up
Well I wish I did
Hang up
Oh I wish I did, instead
I just sat there and cried
