I am swimming deep in the dial tone,
in the swell there is something growing...
A change that the weather stole,
sending beeps but I still feel alone.
So dim in the dial tone,
I’m blind in the wide, cruel unknown.
So far above, I send my love...
The dull of fate on my skin
while I have been
in a sinking feeling
In the dial tone you drown in atmosphere...
The infinity of the dial tone
has my sense of direction stalling.
The blue, my leviathan...
the air, the eye of the storm.
I send my love, so far above...
The dull of fate on my skin
while I have been
in a sinking feeling
In the dial tone you drown in atmosphere...
In the dial tone I will be waiting here...
