Dial Tones Lyrics

It really hurts to know that I'm why your bed's half empty
Why you sleep alone or just stare up at your ceiling
And if you're a mess, God knows what that makes me
'Cause the weight from all my guilt is all too much for me to carry
I'm sorry

Am I all that you never wanted?
Or has it been so long that you've forgotten?
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones)
Take your caution or take your chances
I'll mend your heart and break it in the same breath
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones)

(Dial tones)

I'm getting more of what I've always wanted
But becoming less of who I've ever been
'Cause I promised myself I'd never hurt you and I did
If you can't trust a liar, how can you trust me again?
I'm running out of ways to say I'm sorry

Am I all that you never wanted?
Or has it been so long that you've forgotten?
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones)
Take your caution or take your chances
I'll mend your heart and break it in the same breath
All we ever share are dial tones

Forget me like you know you want to
Forget me like you know you have to
It really hurts to know that I'm why your bed's half empty
Why you sleep alone or just stare up at your ceiling

Am I all that you never wanted?
Or has it been so long that you've forgotten?
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones)
Take your caution or take your chances
I'll mend your heart and break it in the same breath
All we ever share are dial tones (dial tones)
All we ever share are (dial tones)
All we ever share are (dial tones)

What is the Meaning of Dial Tones?

This introspective track delves into themes of guilt, regret, and emotional disconnect. The speaker grapples with the pain they’ve caused in a relationship, symbolized by empty beds and lonely ceilings. They express remorse for breaking promises, acknowledging their inability to be trusted again. The recurring metaphor of "dial tones" signifies communication breakdown and emotional distance 📞. The speaker's internal conflict is evident as they seek redemption but feel incapable of offering stability, confessing to both mending and breaking hearts. The persistent questioning of their partner's true feelings reflects self-doubt and a yearning for understanding. Despite desires for reconciliation, the speaker seems resigned to the inevitable need for them to be forgotten. This powerful lamentation highlights the struggle between wanting to hold on and knowing it's time to let go. 💔
