We feel a desperation rise from trees
We're keeping our hearts so ever close
Is this the generation left on the brink
Or will we find a way to stay composed
All I want is a call on the way
All I want is a spot on the stage
Stand by telephone
Break the open dial tone
A chance just to make it
To feel so awakened
To look past persuasions
To feel we can brave
All in this world
Needing more than paychecks to fall asleep
Will we find a purpose we can hold
Taking occupations with no belief
Money doesn't mean there is control
All I want is a call on the way
All I want is a spot on the stage
Stand by telephone
Break the open dial tone
A chance just to make it
To feel so awakened
To look past persuasions
To feel we can brave
All in this world
Don't leave the wires all tangled
Don't let the telephone down
Don't leave your wires all tangled
Don't let the poles touch the ground
