Busy Signals Lyrics

We're stunning contradiction,
A pieced together picture of a satellite trying to fly.
But this is feeling like a stick-up
And I'm about to plan my getaway.
I guess it's better late than never,
It's scary but whatever at least
It didn't lead me to lie.
Because even if I'm prepared to settle
But I'm not about to give my heart away
To subjects without predicates

You chain me to the telephone
To keep me close when you're alone.
I'm hanging up, you're begging me to stay.
The busy signals compromise your innocence
And alibis so I'm about to let you walk away.

This is easier than lying,
I'm not afraid of dying
But it doesn't mean
I'm ready to go.
All the animals are trying
But I just wanna survive anyway.
We're a dangerous progression a volatile succession,
A saturation ready to blow. It's a chemical reaction;
The acids and the bases break away to subjects without predicates.

We're trapped, tangled in the slack
Our finger on the trigger
And a saddle on our backs.
So get back, the subtlety's a trap,
We'll never take it easy
And we'll never take it back.
We're trapped, tangled in the slack,
We'll never take it easy
And we'll never take it back
You chain me to the telephone
To keep me close when you're alone.
I'm hanging up, you're begging me to stay.
The busy signals compromise excuses,
Threats and alibis so I'm about to let you walk away.
Cause I can only let you walk away.

I called you to keep you away.
