Energetic and full of harmonic twists and turns, this unique track is lyrically inspired by the nature of flawed communication. An air of tongue-in-cheek musical theatre!

lyrics

I get this nagging feeling you're waiting for me
to give you a piece of mind
It would only release me and surely release you and
I know that we should be kind

But, it isn't my turn
Isn't my turn
You sit in silence even though you made the call
And i'm hanging up it's over to you.

It's abundantly clear there's a worm in your ear and
I think it's leaving you flat
The theme is oblique and the signal is weak
But there's just no denying the fact that..

It isn't my turn
Yeah it's probably your turn
You sit in silence even though you made the call
And i'm hanging up - over to you

I think you're losing me amid diplomacy
Someone write me a song that I can hang my hat on

It isn't my turn
It isn't my turn
You sit in silence even though you made the call
And I'm hanging-up!
