Skyscraper

Didn't call for any answers
But you answered
That's my way
Who'da felt so alone
In a pool of a million dollar skyscraper
Steel shades

Hello, Hello
Are you there
I know you by name
But you just don't
Care, care, care
For me... you say

Baby, you've been calling
For my dollar on the hour
Dial the operator
Just to hear the sound
But it's not around

Two's of us our heart is broken
And I'm left here all alone
I thought these calls were recorded
And I'm right here on the phone

Mechanical problems
I just can't stop
My cold mechanical heart
1-900 tell me who cares
Who cares... and you say

Baby, you've been calling
For my dollar on the hour
Dial the operator
Just to hear the sound
Oh, my dear you've been hanging
By the phone for weeks and hours
You dump your ashtray out on the ground
But it's not around

We're mechanical people
With arrhythmic hearts (x3)
We're mechanical people
But don't set us apart

We're mechanical people
With arrhythmic hearts (x3)
We're mechanical people
But don't set us apart

And I know you've got a soul
And I know you can be held
And I'm stuck here, on the other line
Holding, holding, holding

We're mechanical people
With arrhythmic hearts (x3)
Don't don't don't set us apart
We're mechanical people
With arrhythmic hearts (x3)
Don't don't don't set us apart
We're mechanical people
With arrhythmic hearts (x3)
Don't don't don't set us apart
