Lyrics of B.Miles – Emergency Contact

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”
