Phone Call



Inside of a dark basement lies a girl

Who's life just headed for a twirl

As she heard the phone ring

She hoped that the news would make her heart sing

Little did she know about that ring

For a darkness through the line made her sing

The song was about sadness from the close loss of a friend

Who she thought would never force her end

She thought about Kari

Then her thoughts turned to Sam

And it made her wonder who I am

As I look into the mirror

I asked for answers and held my friends dearer

So I sang a different tune for awhile

Then started blaming myself for being so senile

Then I began to walk away

Hoping that at least one friend could stay

On this Earth with me for a little while

So maybe I would get rid of this denial

But as the tears ran down my face

I felt all the pain begin to race

Right through the body that is mine

I just kept asking for more time

But soon enough I saw today

Something that made me think about life in another way

The Darkness flooded my mind

And soon my teeth began to grind

The anger surging through my heart

Almost made me fall apart

I fell upon the cement wishing it didn't start

Asking myself why they killed my heart

With the knives, guns, cars, and poison darts

Still everything clattered into my head

With all the bad news I began to wish that I was dead

Or maybe that there was something that I could have said

But now this phone call has fed

The pain inside of me

Wishing waiting and hoping to set my pain free

Why wont tragedy just leave me the fuck alone

I have enough to deal with all on my own

But the tears didn't help the pain

As I heard the click I was alone again
