Telephone Booth


The future's bright as you want it to be
Don't waste your time on the things you can't see
It's just an image that you stitch and you sew
To lose your head because you can't let it go

Deep in your heart you can see that it's true
They can't decide your decisions for you
To hold your head as the world spins away
And live to fight as your memories decay
But you've waited all too long for an escape

I'm sorry but it isn't so bad now
Well I'm sorry that you can't call a truce
In the space where the fog's slowly lifting
Crossing lines in a telephone booth

The past is bright if you live in denial
Don't waste your time on the things you revile
While in your head there's a space to react
A fleeting glance as you stop looking back
But you listened far too long before it cracked

I'm sorry but it isn't so bad now
Well I'm sorry that you can't call a truce
In the space where the fog's slowly lifting
Crossing lines in a telephone booth

The noose is slowly tightening
And there's nowhere to escape
Your stories only run so long
Until there's nothing left to say

Decide on what you want, it haunts you
Forever's gonna start again today

I'm sorry but it isn't so bad now
Well I'm sorry that you can't call a truce
In the space where the fog's slowly lifting
Crossing lines in a telephone booth

So you've waited all too long for an escape
But forever's gonna start again today
Forever's gonna start again today
