Operator

Operator, operator
I’ve been calling you for hours
But my signal’s getting weak
So I’m turning these lights down
I’ve been circling the planet
At a million miles an hour
And I thought I saw a flash
A billion neon sounds went out
Operator, operator
Won’t you please, give me a sign?
Am I watching the world unwind?
Had you for one day, fit for a thousand years
I just keep playing this scene over in my mind
I know that I’m just a prisoner here
I’ll just keep playing this scene over and rewind
Operator, take a message
At the guards are all in fire
And they’re slipping out the back door
With more leaving every hour
And all the streets we walked on
And everyone we loved
Gone like ash on the morning air
Hallelujah, hallelujah
I’m just starring at the sun
Are we watching the world undone?
Had you for one day, fit for a thousand years
I just keep playing this scene over in my mind
I know that I’m just a prisoner here
I’ll just keep playing this scene over and rewind
I’ve been drawn by the sun
And I am being drawn by the sun
Operator, operator
I’ve been calling you for hours
And I thought I saw a flash, billion voices just went out
And all the streets we walked on
And everyone we loved
Gone like ash on the morning air
Had you for one day, fit for a thousand years
I just keep playing this scene over in my mind
I know that I’m just a prisoner here
I’ll just keep playing this scene over and rewind
