A voice on the machine... so familiar to me
Yet you stuttered a bit... rushed at the end...
My gut clenched tight with an unknown emotion...
I choked on a sigh... and my hands gave a shake
I turned away... denied the urge to return the call
Tried to turn my attention elsewhere...
Then the phone started to ring... and I knew it was you
Still I answered with a nonchalance I didn't feel
It was awkward at first... pretending I hadn't heard the message
Then I stated my case... all was laid on the line
I couldn't decide wether to laugh or to cry... like old times
You apologized then... your words were simple and plain
I am so weak to agree... so sad to laugh again...
But there is still bone left in this back of mine... I am still strong
Now I will tell you what must be done... I'm finished with crawling on bloody knees
We will meet on the middle ground... or part ways forever.
Well. Looks like I'm talking to Keoki again. Hm. I feel so... weird. I wanted to throw up after I heard the message. Wanted to cry when we were talking... also wanted to yell. Well, I kinda did yell... yeah. We used to sing this song together at karaoke.
