I join the cue on your answer phone
  And all I am is holding breath
  Just pick up I know you're there
  Can't you hear?
  I'm not myself
  
  Oh, go ahead and lie to me
  You could say anything
  Small talk will be just fine
  Your voice is everything
  We owe to life
  And it all depends on you
  
  It's only summer
  The sun hasn't set
  (I refuse to believe that it's only me you fear)
  Just hear me out
  I'm not over you yet
  (Love is on the line, can you handle it?)
  
  So how do I do normal?
  The smile I fake
  The permanent wave
  Oh, cue cards aren't fixing it
  Can't you tell?
  I'm not myself
  
  I'm a slow motion accident
  Lost in coffee rings and fingerprints
  I don't wanna feel anything but I do
  And it all comes back to you
  
  It's only summer
  The sun hasn't set
  (I refuse to believe that it's only me you fear)
  Just hear me out
  I'm not over you yet
  (Love is on the line, can you handle it?)
  
  It's only summer
  You've got me strained
  Just hear me out
  Don't make me wait
  I'm not myself
  I can't take this
  Love's on the line
  Is that your final answer?
  
  I join the cue on your answer phone
  And all I am is holding breath
  Just pick up, I know you're there...
  
  It's only summer
  The sun hasn't set
  (I refuse to believe that it's only me you fear)
  Just hear me out
  I'm not over you yet
  (Love is on the line, can you handle it?)
