This is another great Quever song. I think the meaning is obvious enough, so I won't comment much on it except to say it's profound in its straightforward simplicity.
But, a lyric is wrong. It's not, "And didn't miss the sentences," which would make no sense.
After rewinding a few times, I'm pretty sure it's:
"And didn't Miss, THE SYSTEM SAY
I'm sorry, but who are you
He's stepped out for a while.
He's unavailable to you now
I think, in this verse, the girl, who would probably like to believe she is important in this man's life, is calling him at work. Not only can she not get him on the line at work but his secretary or whomever answers the phones (the "system") does not even know who she is, which only demonstrates his unavailability because apparently (if you read between the lines) this girl is so unimportant to him that he doesn't ever even mention her among his coworkers.
