Lyrics

You're a silence on the phone

You represent a lack of communication when we speak on the phone.

Yo're a song with just one fucking note

Your existence is like a repetitive and monotonous song with only one note.

And I'm clued-out cole

I am emotionally distant or detached, similar to being clueless and cold.

Like an off-color joke

Similar to an inappropriate joke, I feel out of place or uncomfortable.

When I call collect to NYC

When I make a collect call to New York City, a significant and challenging act.

Everybody learns eventually

Over time, everyone learns the difficulty and consequences of such actions.

To go hang it up

People eventually learn to end the conversation or relationship.

You go hang it up

Emphasizing the idea of ending things, urging the other person to hang up.

It's really really easy

Ending the relationship is depicted as a straightforward and uncomplicated task.


Yeah, I put your letter down

I have put aside the letter you sent me.

But this graffiti finds it's way around

Despite my attempt to ignore your message, its impact lingers in some form.

I want to talk

Expressing a desire to communicate and engage in conversation.

Why you want to stop?

Questioning the other person's reluctance to continue talking.

It's impossible for me

Expressing the difficulty of not being able to communicate.


So here's my trick: when I hear your "hello"

When hearing your greeting, I associate it with the influence of alcohol.

I know I'm listening to alcohol

Suggesting that the other person's voice reminds me of the effects of alcohol.

Oh, I'm drunk on a call

Indicating that the speaker is emotionally affected or intoxicated during the call.


I heard you found some other guy

Learning that you have found another person in your life.

Some high note you thought I couldn't hit

Referring to the discovery of someone with qualities I was perceived as lacking.

But I never tried

Acknowledging that I never made an effort to reach certain heights or qualities.

No, I never did

Reiterating that I never attempted to be someone I'm not.
