Please Don’t Call On Me

[Intro]
I am the devil
I am your mother
Dancing in circles
Come be my lover

[Verse 1]
Pulled underneath by an ocean of grief
Struggling sometimes to breathe
The sum of all fears can be found in your tears
(Something I don’t believe)

[Verse 2]
See my impression of life as confession?
I got it down to a T
When I awaken my hands will be shaking so
Please don’t call on me

[Verse 3]
Stroll into town with my head above ground
Something that I can’t afford
If I’m not mistaken the plans that I’m making
Will be laughed at by the law

[Verse 4]
Smiling and waving and looking for something
That sits in the eye of my need
While I am making it
F is for faking it
Please don’t call on me

[Chorus]
Please don’t call on me
Please don’t call on me
Please don’t call on me
Cos I’m young and I’m free

[Verse 5]
All outta time so I walk the thin line
Travel the length of the land
All I was looking for spills now onto the floor
While my bones turn to sand

[Verse 6]
Back near the station beneath murmurations
I am engulfed by the sea
While I am living they’ll be no forgiving so
Please don’t call on me

[Bridge]
Sirens wailing
Sirens calling my name
Sirens screaming
Sirens calling my name

[Verse 7]
Pulled underneath by that ocean of grief
No longer able to breathe
The sum of all fears can be found in my tears
(Something I now believe)

[Verse 8]
See my impression of life as confession?
I had it down to a T
I won’t be waking my hands won’t be shaking so
Please don’t call on me

[Chorus]
Please don’t call on me
Please don’t call on me
Please don’t call on me
Cos I’m young and I’m free

[Outro]
I am the devil
I am your mother
Dancing in circles
Come be my lover
