My ear is on the wire
my feet are on the floor
I'm sitting by the fire
I think I know you from the diner
but I don't go there no more
I got the windows open wide
deadbolt on the door
to my memory I'm tied
I swear I'm not trying to hide
but I don't go out no more
I don't go out anymore
feels like I've been cut off
in the middle of a conversation
I've been having with the
very last of my self-control
do I get it back or
do I need a new elevation
this quarantine has got me
on the ledges of my soul
my heart is on the line
my love is on the shore
my hope is in the brine
my heart is on the line
can't lose it anymore
can't lose it anymore
my ear is on the wire
my feet are on the floor
I'm sitting here by the fire
I think I know you from the diner
but I don't go there no more
no I don't go there no more
