20th Call of the Day (Demo)
My whole life I was a ghost
My memory lost out in the lights
Speeding someplace off the coast
Tears running down my eyes
So fall into me if you must
Be forewarned
Look up, look up, look up to the sky
Past the freeway
Like I got nothin' to say
Traffic is mumbling, the birds are still singing
Their twentieth call of the day
Their twentieth call of the day
Emptiness is an empty drawer
That used to smell like your perfume
A stack of records lined up to play
But nothing plays
The stereo is just on
So fall into me if you must
But be forewarned
Look up, look up, look up to the sky
To the light
Through the trees where the shadows play
Traffic is mumbling, the church bells ring
Their twentieth call of the day
Their twentieth call of the day
I'd wait around here forever
To hear your voice say my name again
I will remember all the things you have said
I will remember all the things we did
So fall into me if you must
But be forewarned
Look up, look up, look up to the sky
To the light
In the trees where the shadows play
Traffic is mumbling, the church bells ring
Their twentieth call of the day
Their twentieth call of the day
