As It Is – Dial Tones lyrics

[Verse 1]
It really hurts to know that I'm why your bed's half empty,
Why you sleep alone or just stare up at your ceiling?
And if you're a mess, God knows what that makes me.
'Cause the weight from all my guilt is all too much for me to carry.
I'm sorry.

[Chorus]
Am I all that you never wanted,
Or has it been so long that you've forgotten?
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones!)
Take your caution or take your chances,
I'll mend your heart and break it in the same breath.
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones!)
Dial tones.

[Verse 2]
I'm getting more of what I've always wanted,
But becoming less of who I've ever been.
'Cause I promised myself I'd never hurt you and I did,
If you can't trust a liar, how can you trust me again?
I'm running out of ways to say I'm sorry!

[Chorus]
Am I all that you never wanted,
Or has it been so long that you've forgotten?
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones!)
Take your caution or take your chances,
I'll mend your heart and break it in the same breath.
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones!)
Dial tones.

[Bridge]
Forget me like you know you want to,
Forget me like you know you have to.
It really hurts to know that I'm why your bed's half empty,
Why you sleep alone or just stare up at your ceiling?

[Outro]
Am I all that you never wanted,
Or has it been so long that you've forgotten?
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones!)
Take your caution or take your chances,
I'll mend your heart and break it in the same breath.
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones!)
All we ever share are, dial tones,
All we ever share are, dial tones.
