Emergency Contact Lyrics

I'm a model in this room

A green gown slipped on

Matching every girl in here

Who's last names aren't yet called

Where no-o news is good news

And everything takes too long

"Miss Miles", the nurse she croons

"Who can we contact?"

I sit alone

Trying not to overreact

Staring at a line that says, "emergency contact"

And all I see

Are their eyes that all look at me

Like a spotlight saying that I don't have somebody

That I could choose

I just need you

I know that I let go

Of our love but I know

There's no one who

I'll go home to

Wonder if I called you

Would you let it ring through?

Memory steering the wheel

A-route that we'd go on

Feeling like I'm a car wreck coming

Watch life flash before my eyes

Like our long drives on weekends

The same songs we'd always sing

Red and blue lights ask who

They can reach out to

I sit alone

Trying not to overreact

Staring at a line that says, "emergency contact"

And all I see

Are their eyes that all look at me

Like a spotlight saying that I don't have somebody

That I could choose

I just need you

I know that I let go

Of our love but I know

There's no one who

I'll go home to

Wonder if I called you

Would you let it ring through?

I just spent a year

Thinking I

Wouldn't need you

Didn't realize

Maybe I

Am wrong too

Panicking as I try

To think of who

Anyone that could come

Close to you

I sit alone

Trying not to overreact

Staring at a line that says, "emergency contact"

And all I see

Are their eyes that all look at me

Like a spotlight saying that I don't have somebody

That I could choose

I just need you

I know that I let go

Of our love but I know

There's no one who

I'll go home to

Staring at a line that says, "emergency contact"
