Helpline (feat. Armaan Yadav)

I guess I'll let you go again
We've spoken for a while now
I know it's only 2AM
But tomorrow is today now
Don't hang up I'm hungover
Don't tell me I should come over
Don't tell me you know what is like
When you're not on the other side of

The phone knows too much about us
So much that speaks to me now
The number you're calling
Is busy at the moment
Yes, you did say something about
Being busy trying to figure it out
But the number you're calling
Is speaking to someone else
So I guess
You did not cut off everyone else
Just my call
A call that you took
When you never really picked up on things
Please, hold the line, says the phone
And trust me I have been holding on
Or call back again in some time
Giving me thicker fake hope
As I reach for the unreachable
Number of times
Which you're roaming too much
And I'm losing all my balance
The phone has started
Taking matter into its own hands
Causing you with beeps
Unable to hang
In the midst of every call
Deemed engaged
Engaged with someone else
Engaged in something less
Than what we had
Maybe you are my missed call
My missed chance
The number you're calling
Does not exist
Maybe just not anymore
So when I think of new relationships
The phone reminds me
That I probably don't have
Enough credit left to make that call
At least not anymore

I guess I'll let you go again
We've spoken for a while now
I know it's only 2AM
But tomorrow is today now

Don't hang up I'm hungover
Don't tell me I should come over
Don't tell me you know what is like
When you're not on the other side, no

You sound the same through
The phone and my memories
Waiting in home for the call
That you say you'd leave
I used to love how you call
Once I fell asleep
I answer slow
But you get the most honesty
I overheard that you've fallen in love with him
And I can tell that you've already let him in
You used to say that you'd be waiting for me
But I've been left on hold for weeks

And all the times
We fell asleep on the phone
With the call still going on
I couldn't imagine
We were going wrong
We were going strong
I could never read the signs
But I guess he was
Always on the line
Just waiting for his time
When the fuck did this
Cross connection happened
You locked me outside home
With changing patterns
Pulling the plug
On who we used to be
I'm exhausted batteries
And corny metaphors
You're stuck in my head
Looping like a song
I bet I'm on your playlist too
The recently played section
Or maybe most played too
Because I never learn my lessons
They say fear leaves you
With two responses fight or flight
I feared losing you
And I responded
With all my might
Standing firm
And you switch to
Your airplane mode
Running down
A runway
Running down
Everything we were
Running away
I want to run away too
But I've been out of breath
From chasing you
All the fucking time
And I just can't anymore

You sound the same
Through the phone
And my memories
Waiting in home for the call
That you say you'd leave
I used to love how you call
Once I fell asleep
I answer slow
But you get the most honesty
I overheard that you've fallen in love with him
And I can tell that you've already let him in
You used to say that you'd be waiting for me
But I've been left on hold for weeks

The phone knows too much about us
So much that speaks to me now
