Lyrics:
in my own way
i’m weighted down
i’m fated.
last night it came
and stayed around
and waited.

pick apart my phone case,
staring at the empty space -
bout as empty as my face these days.
wonder if the call came,
would i have anything to say
in the first place

in the backseat, head pressed against my knees
i wanted to scream.

behind this gaze,
i’m quite afraid
lies nothing.
i find this weight,
pressed under a dark lamp shade
and all i want is a break -
til morning.
pick apart my phone case,
staring at the empty space -
bout as empty as my face these days.
wonder if the call came,
would i have anything to say
in the first place.

in the backseat, head pressed against my knees
i wanted to scream.
am i stuck behind?
struck downline?
where the hell am i?

pick apart my phone case,
staring at the empty space -
bout as empty as my face these days.
wonder if the call came,
would i have anything to say
in the first place.

wonder if the call came (i wonder if you’d call me, anything)
would i have anything to say
in the first place?

I can't get enough of this song and you guys. Ya'll need to tour with Local Natives, Fleet Foxes and Hippo Campus. I'd pay hundreds for that 🤗

[justinmoreno]

I heard this song in the past, but did not know the name of the song or who performed it. Recently, a friend of mine played it in my car and I'm so happy she properly introduced me to this song!

[Verse 1]
In my own way
I’m weighted down
I’m fated
Last night it came
And stayed around
And waited
(Can't wrap my head around it
Can't wrap my head)

[Chorus]
Pick apart my phone case
Staring at the empty space
'Bout as empty as my face these days
Wonder if the call came
Would I have anything to say
In the first place?
[Post-Chorus]
In the backseat, head pressed against my knees
I wanted to scream

[Verse 2]
Behind this gaze
I’m quite afraid
Like nothing
(Can't wrap my head around it
Can't wrap my head)
I find this weight
Pressed under a dark lamp shade
And all I want is a break (Can't wrap my head around it)
'Til morning (Can't wrap my head)

[Chorus]
Pick apart my phone case
Staring at the empty space
'Bout as empty as my face these days
(Can't wrap my head around it
Can't wrap my head)
Wonder if the call came
Would I have anything to say
In the first place?

[Post-Chorus]
In the backseat, head pressed against my knees
I wanted to scream

[Bridge]
Am I stuck behind?
Struck down line?
Where the hell am I?

[Chorus]
Pick apart my phone case
Staring at the empty space
Bout as empty as my face these days
(Can't wrap my head around it
Can't wrap my head)
Wonder if the call came
Would I have anything to say
In the first place?
(Can't wrap my head around it
Can't wrap my head)

[Outro]
Wonder if the call came (I wonder if you’d call me, anything)
Would I have anything to say
In the first place?

[shmuelgurr]
