Lyrics

Text Message

I cannot get there anymore
the bridge is broken
you took it down with your own hands
surprised you'd call me over

I can't swim all the way to you
I sold my boat to buy your shoes
yeah, I'm outspoken

The grass was greener in your yard
now the mirror's broken
I should have recognized my lawn
long before it outgrew me

I cannot make it to the road
My mower's left me here alone
yeah, I'm forgotten

I cannot see you anymore
my glass is broken
you're farther off than I had known
I've lost your heading

My dinner's rotting in the sink
I'll just throw the plates away I think
And I've
Spent my last
Emotional Penny
just to try to convince you
that we have something special
your deposit into our account
when came the time to take it out
was just enough to send me a short
Text Message

I cannot hear you anymore
My phone is broken.
