Your Call
I lay here in bed
and wait for your call
I lay here and die
but you won't call at all
The slip of the tongue
has turned you away
The truth in the lies
the edge starts to fray
You call less and less
and one day it's never
After the assurance
you'd love me forever
As my heart withers
and tears start to fall
I lay here in darkness
and wait for your call
