Too Busy Sinking Lyrics by Katie Jane Garside

Lullabies in a Glass Wilderness

2007

[Verse 1]
Maybe her light could illuminate my dark
The cave walls are leaking, I can't make a spark
[Chorus]
The telephone is ringing but I won't take your call
I'm too busy sinking, climbing the walls, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
There's too many fishes adrift in my sea
My message in a bottle did swim back to me
I scolded the fisherman cause he won't tow the line
I broke all his bottles and he did break mine
[Chorus]
The telephone is ringing but I won't take your call
I'm too busy sinking, climbing the walls, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
They gave me a dream but it turned out all sour
The wind, she did shake me and break me for hours
They lift up my sails and they've torn down my mast
The gods up above me, they laugh, they laugh
[Chorus]
The telephone is ringing but I won't take your call
I'm too busy sinking, climbing the walls
[Bridge]
Walls
Hey, oh
[?]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
The telephone is ringing but I won't take your call
I'm too busy sinking, climbing the walls, yeah, yeah
[Outro]
Walls, yeah, yeah
Walls, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Walls) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The telephone is ringing but I won't take your call
