6:17 Lyrics

Loose Buttons 6:17

Alone lies on the bed in which it's made
6: 17
All the walls look on at the stranger inside his screen
What's it mean?

Please indulge my interest
There's nothing left to undress
Obliviously obsessed

I'd like to take a look inside your dreams
Just to see
How I appear and how we would compare reality
(Where'd you go, why the wait so long?)

Apprehensive access
Hide your secrets, actress
An empty return address found

Like a fool I am pacing around
Wide awake with the lies I can't recount
If you need me, I'm waiting inside
Wondering if my message has arrived

All the times I danced my voice around
Jealousy
Calibrated thoughts in your mailbox
f..cked my legacy

Never mind that maybe
I fear the distance lately
And wish it didn't phase me now

Like a fool I am pacing around
What to think when the phone won't make a sound
If you need me, I'm waiting inside
Wondering if my message has arrived

I'm not looking for a pause in the action
(You're hesitating, I understand)
But I've been chasing like it's gone outta fashion now
