Hello Darling

Tune in to me when you’re alone.
I will make my way to your home.
Wisp around you, float in your head.
I will sing to you when you’re in bed.

Hear my voice caress your ears.
Allaying doubt and all your fears.
Listen to my sultry voice.
And drift away into the noise.

When you awake I will be there just the same as before.
I am just the empty air hidden behind your door.

Hello, darling, I’m the music and song.
If you want me, I will never be long.

Over the years my body has changed.
I’ve grown smaller, squat and quite strange.
But my voice sings clearer every day.
I still only wish to carry you away.

The crackle grows dimmer and I know.
That there’s no end to my concerto.
Telling you stories of love and war.
That resonate with your very core.

Then you see something catch your eye and show you a smile.
You can go and play that game, but know I’ll be here the whole while.

Hello, darling, I’m the radio’s cry.
If you want me, I’ll never say goodbye.
Hello, darling, kiss my plastic dials.
I’ll be here forever just to drive you wild.

You’ve heard so much from me.
You know what you believe.
Every voice of mine will disagree.
But still don’t stop listening.

It’s my broadcast across the world.
To harness the mind of boys and girls.
I’ll set you up to tear you down.
And then I’ll do it all over.

Do you remember all those years ago?
When I said I would love you so.
That I didn’t want what I’ve now caused.
Still I never stopped, I never paused.

To think that you would be the one.
To stand over me like when we’d just begun.
Hold me in your arms again, my dear.
And fall with me until we disappear.

Hello, darling, let me welcome you.
To your calling, it’s what I do.
Hello, darling, it’s all over now.
Goodbye, darling, enjoy your stay in hell.

And the stars cry so eclectic.
The static was electric.
You see it all flash before your eyes.

Every style rejected.
After years spent respected.
It’s coming down like a pile of lies.

I’ve been haunting like a ghost you couldn’t see.
Only holding on to you with abstract fallacies.
Contorting every wish, distorting every note.
Painting mere mortals as gods who wrote.

But you are the finer fool than all the rest.
I love all your ignorance, but you’re the best.

Hello, darling, it’s been eternity.
Now you find me sailing empty seas.
All behind me, nothing still remains.
Hello, darling, please stay with me.

Won’t you stay with me?
Your love is all I need.
The endless echoes drive me insane.
I see only void on this eternal plain.

Hello, darling?
Hello, darling?
Hello?
Hello?

Are you still there?
