Phone Sex - The Ocean Party

Drifting in and out, half asleep

Slipped on the wet tiles around the pool

I split my head down the front

You screamed and you slipped in my own blood

And in the morning, when I wake up

Try to catch up with what’s already in motion

And I see people on the street

They don’t know that I’m obsessed with them

I go to work and take it slow

I see the city, see people falling from windows

And where’s the inspiration on an endless trip?

I never see it coming 'til I hit the ground running

I made a call, you didn’t answer

Said I’d call you back later

Never thought too much about the future

Until everything moves faster than it used to

But my perception of time

Just catching up from where I left it behind

And every day and every night

I try to rein in any excess in motion

I wrote a book full of things I’ll never do

Yeah, I’m obsessed with them

I get back home and can’t slow down

I see the city when I close my eyes

And my face under the weight of my beating head

Until I’m dying in my sleep again

An ounce of care I never had

For anyone on my future

Never thought about the bigger picture

Until nothing’s like I’m used to

I made a call, you didn’t answer

Said I’d call you back later

Never thought too much about the future

Until nothing’s like I’m used to
