Callbacks Lyrics
Callbacks
I gues that i should probably leave right now
cause im already kind of sweating and freaking out
i got a timebomb headache thats ticking down
i guess that everythings better when im not around
its all out of context
its nothing im into
call it a complex
its really quite simple
im tired of these hangups
i wish somebody would call me back.
how about it?
well my tongue is tired
and im seeing stars
i got a million ugly words for what you are
i got a busted back
and a broken heart
i guess that everything is better where ever you are.
its all out of context
its nothing im into
call it a complex
its really quite simple
im tired of these hangups
i wish somebody would call me back.
how about it?
its all out of context
its nothing im into
call it a complex
its really quite simple
im tired of these hangups
i wish somebody would call me back.
and im so sorry to bring you down
i guess that everythings better when im not around
and im so sorry to bring you down
i guess that everythings better when im not around
and im so sorry to bring you down
i guess that everythings better when im not around
cause im already kind of sweating and freaking out
i got a timebomb headache thats ticking down
i guess that everythings better when im not around
its nothing im into
call it a complex
its really quite simple
im tired of these hangups
i wish somebody would call me back.
how about it?
and im seeing stars
i got a million ugly words for what you are
i got a busted back
and a broken heart
i guess that everything is better where ever you are.
its nothing im into
call it a complex
its really quite simple
im tired of these hangups
i wish somebody would call me back.
how about it?
its nothing im into
call it a complex
its really quite simple
im tired of these hangups
i wish somebody would call me back.
and im so sorry to bring you down
i guess that everythings better when im not around
and im so sorry to bring you down
i guess that everythings better when im not around
and im so sorry to bring you down
i guess that everythings better when im not around

this song is really summed up by one word. 'frustration'. the acknowledging that sombody is frustrating him and its a story again about love and the deception of it, he is too rejective to stay around and gets frustrated of his inability.
Summing up is so fucking annoying.
well he's right. and this song, it's great.
This is one of the few tolerable songs on True Crime: New York City. Great song. Why isn't anything like this ever played on the radio?
maybe this guy is just freaking out for no reason.
i know this, because i do this all the time.
You get damn frustrated, not necessarily because of something your lover did, but because you may have some insecurities of some sort about being in the relationship.
It just seems like someone is very frustrated by their insecurities, and all I can say to that is welcome to the club.
im tired of these hangups, i wish someone would call me back. how bout it?
is that not brilliant.
^ I don't get that line! please explain.
Boney: It always reminded me of the whole acting business. o_o You know, how if they think you're good, they'll call you back? Mayhaps he's having employment issues.
It could also refer to the dating scene. He's sick and tired of going out on one date and never seeing her again because she never returns his calls.
Much fun to sing. :hartforthissong:
I only like the acoustic version of this song, but they are still amazing
it fucking bothers me that bands like We Are Scientists, Kings of Leon and the Strokes ARE NEVER PLAYED ON THE RADIO!
PEOPLE LISTENING TO THE RADIO DON'T KNOW WHAT MUSIC REALLY IS!!
they know what rap and shit are, though!? GOOODNESS PEOPLE WAKE UP!
