about

"voicemail" is about over dependence. it's not that being dependent on someone is necessarily a bad thing, but there comes a point where you can over-indulge in it. you can slip into believing a fairytale, this wonderful thing where someone- just being around them makes you feel perfect. you don't have to consider your faults, face your fears, become the person you want to be, if you already feel satisfied. and thus you need to ask yourself- are you really satisfied with who you are, or are you being spoiled by the people you trust most? and if you are, is it because you're letting them, or because they're taking advantage of you? and sometimes, a third party is all it takes to get you out of that cycle.

it was the third single released from the album. nostraightanswer.bandcamp.com/album/voicemail

lyrics

something about the way you make me feel at night
a conversation 'tween the heart against the mind
a pull towards a chance to maybe be alright

convince myself that you're the only one i need
and lose myself in deep devotion, like the sea
nobody else can fall so irresponsibly

cuz when you say my name i just feel so high
and i'm not chained if i'm feeling fine while i'm behind you
fate is a little lie
but i'm no stranger to keeping time, let me remind you

i'll take my place up against the wall
turn my face towards a soon-missed call
but who needs them when i have it all
right here, with you

something about the way you make me feel at night
a conversation 'tween the heart against the mind
a pull towards a chance to maybe be alright
(but nobody knows where i've been)

convince myself that you're the only one i need
and lose myself in deep devotion, like the sea
nobody else can fall so irresponsibly
(somebody pull me out)

cuz when you say my name i just feel so high
and i'm not chained if i'm feeling fine while i'm behind you
fate is a little lie
but i'm no stranger to keeping time, let me remind you

i'll take my place up against the wall
turn my face towards a soon-missed call
but who needs them when i have it all
right here, with you

no fairytale has ever ended quite the same
but if you asked, there's nobody around to blame
but me, the fool who chose a fantasy

and as it breaks, i finally begin to see
the bigger things that i had never ever thought to be
all summed up by a voicemail

yet when you say my name i just feel so high
but i'm still chained if i'm feeling fine while i'm behind you
faith in a little lie
but i'm no stranger to changing times, let me remind you

i'll take my place up against the wall
turn my face towards a soon-missed call
but who needs them when i have it all
right here, with you
but i do

i've got a voicemail
i've got a voicemail
