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
