THE ALARM RANG FOR DAYS
YOU COULD TELL FROM CONVERSATIONS
I WAS WAITING BY THE SCREEN
I COULDN'T RECOGNISE MY PHOTOGRAPH
ME, I DISCONNECT FROM YOU

I WAS WALKING UP THE STAIRS
SOMETHING MOVED IN SILENCE
I COULD FEEL HIS MIND DECAYING
ONLY INCHES AWAY FROM ME
AND I DISCONNECT FROM YOU

PLEASE DON'T TURN ME OFF
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING OUTSIDE
ME AND THE TELEPHONE THAT NEVER RINGS
IF YOU WERE ME WHAT WOULD YOU DO
ME I DISCONNECT FROM YOU
