lyrics

I spent so long in your company
I was jaded, blinded by whom I'd thought I'd be
How'd you do it? You carried on while you carried me
And you made it.

I'm calling out your sign
But there's nothing on the line
In emergencies I have often hesitated

I spent some time as a casualty
I was dying, bleeding out on the floor to see
That you're dreaming--is there somewhere you would rather be?
Can you make it?

I'm calling out your sign
But there's nothing on the line
In emergencies I have often hesitated

And now you've gone so far away
From the frontlines, taking leave of the ghosts and grey
You don't know it, but I've found a way to say,
"Hope you made it."

I'm calling out your sign
But there's nothing on the line
In emergencies I have often hesitated

I'm calling out your sign
Oh, you're close but I've resigned.
In emergencies I have often hesitated
