Title:My Party's Extension
Featured onWatch This
Lyrics byDanny O'Brien & Justus Brake
I always assumed if I ever were seconds from death that I'd think about you
As my pulse gently slowed to a dial tone I just thought that's what I'd naturally do
But if it turns out that we no longer care
I'd be forcing a feeling that just isn't there
If it's my call to make then I'd rather pretend
So I sat here for hours and never hit send
'Cause it's you
Yeah, it's you

I know my party's extension
I could dial it any time
I know my party's extension
But for now I'll hold the line

If I could reach you I'd know what was true
But it's taking too long just to try to get through
You send busy signals but they're disingenuous
For the last month you've been changing your menu

Press one for what you said last week
Press two for what you said last year
Press three for what you told your shrink
Press four to hear what I want to hear
Press five to pretend we can even be friends
Press six to see what you're like when you're deranged
Press seven to hear all these options again
Press zero to talk to an actual human being for a change

I always assumed the first day of the rest of my life would be spent next to you
As our spirits combined and our lives intertwined into something amazing and new, ha
But I dodged a bullet; I don't recognize you
A call's coming in on my line
The number's familiar, it takes me a second
I don't say a word, I hang up for all time
'Cause it's you
Yeah, it's you

I know my party's extension
I could dial it any time
I know my party's extension
But for now I'll hold the line

I know my party's extension
I could dial it any time
I know my party's extension
But for now I'll hold the line
