about
“Why Won’t You Pick Up the Phone?”—all chugging acoustic guitars, splashy drums, and playfully off-kilter textures, rather like a piece of silver glinting through the soil—pines for anyone who has ever gone missing for whatever reason, from ex-friends to dead relatives. The song sparkles not in spite of the sadness beneath it but because of it.
lyrics
I can’t control myself
That’s I bang your cell
That’s why I call away
That’s why there’ll come a day when
Shadowed by choked machines
Can’t do this through a screen
Why aren’t you answering?
Why can we talk again?
What’s the world we built up
Just to throw it all away
I’ve gone under
Why won’t you pick up the phone?
Just give me one little sign
And I guess I should have known
But baby please don’t leave me behind
Please don’t leave me behind
Flashing a dogged tooth
The smoking gun of youth
My pocket coughs a dime
I’ll try you one more time (tonight)
If only we could wake up
And you could take it all away
Can you hear my voice?
Why won’t you pick up the phone?
Just give me one little sign
And I guess I should have known
But baby please don’t leave me behind
My baby wouldn’t leave my behind
