“Beep” Lyrics

Verse 1 (Juliana):
99 missed calls, I'm running late to something that can wait
Can’t remember what I planned, trying to meet their demands
How I’d end up here, all alone in my car
It’s easier, it’s quiet and I can’t take it

Chorus 1 (Juliana):
Cause I’m not here now, I let you down
I’m busy trying to figure out
Being everybody's everything
I lost my voice, drowning out
To people I distrust and doubt
So leave a message, I’m disconnected

Verse 2 (Kenneth):
Hey - it's me
Was it something I said or just timing?
Been a few days since I heard from you last

I'm going in circles
Trying to figure out
Our plans you bailed
and the silence so loud
If I don’t hear your voice
I might forget how it sounds

Chorus (Juliana):
I’m not here now, but I’ll hear you out
Still busy trying not to drown
being everybody's everything
I lost my voice but I’m still around
Promise to find you in the crowd
So here’s my message, I’m disconnected
