Redial
Can’t come to the phone right now
Too busy
Didn’t see your call
Try again later?

Redial
Can’t you see I’m busy?
Don’t keep trying
I don’t want to talk
Right now

Redial
Leave a voicemail, will you?
I’ll get back to it later
I promise
Or maybe I’ll listen
But not answer

Redial
Why are you calling
Me?
I shouldn’t be in the
Phone book
Don’t want to be found

Redial
It makes my heart clunk
To pick up the receiver
Too many unknowns
Words get caught in my throat

Redial
Need a second to clear my head
It’s too loud
Ring
Ring
Ring

Redial
The numbers are spinning
Like my mind
Every hour
Every minute
Every second

Redial
It’s hard to get up
I can’t move
Sometimes I shake
Too much

Redial
Can’t think
Can’t think
Can’t think

Redial
Give up
Go away

Redial
Sorry, I think you have the wrong number
