Emergency Calls Only

[Verse 1: Daniel Johns]
Do you feel like I feel
I don’t know what has been going on
Do you cry like I do?
In this field of jokes I laugh alone

[Verse 2: Daniel Johns]
Honestly, endlessly
Merry go round in cycles through my mind
So much air
I can’t breathe
Now I’m speechless ‘cause I fear mankind

[Chorus: Daniel Johns]
That’s why I’m
Emergency calls only
That’s why I’m emergency calls only
Why?
I’m emergency calls only

[Verse 3: Daniel Johns]
Do you wonder through the spokes
Of the world ‘cause you don’t understand
‘Cause I’ve had this feeling all my life
And I don’t need your bad advice
So please don’t try and understand

[Chorus: Daniel Johns]
That’s why I’m
Emergency calls only
That’s why I’m emergency calls only
Why?
I’m emergency calls only

[Bridge: Daniel Johns]
I never really ever talk
I never really got the feeling from you
I never really wanna write
‘Cause the words don’t have a meaning to you
And you don’t wanna talk

[Verse 4: Van Dyke Parks]
I got this feeling
I got nothing in my mind
Nothing left to know
A horse or a pony

I got this feeling
I got nothing left in mind
There’s nothing said in time
Sometimes I get lonely

[Chorus: Daniel Johns]
Why I’m emergency calls only
Calling out
And I’ve never felt so lonely

[Post-Chorus: Daniel Johns]
For you, for you, for you, for you
For you, for you, for you, for you

[Chorus: Daniel Johns & Van Dyke Parks]
That’s why I’m emergency calls only
That’s why I’m emergency calls only
Why?
I’m emergency calls only

[Verse 1: Refrain]
Do you feel like I feel?
I don’t know what has been going on
