lyrics

oh I was in the waiting room
watching your name up on the screen
you were hurting something mean
I know that’s way back when

I watched those daytime TV shows
there wasn’t much else there to do
you know I worry about you
just like I did then

and what else can I do
I’ve been calling out to you

and I can’t make a sound
got the words stuck in my mouth
sometimes I want you around
we could take a walk downtown
but I can’t you know
since you turned me upside down

you were always there
when I had something to forget
now you’re that thing that’s in my head
I have to clear out

oh, I had so much there to lose
I didn’t know that it was you
I had to hold on to
but now I’m falling down

and what else can I do
I’ve been calling out to you

but I can’t make a sound
got the words stuck in my mouth
sometimes I want you around
we could take a walk downtown
but I can’t you know
since you turned me upside down

oh, I’ve been trying hard to find
what I can make from all of this
they’re only songs, you know I wish
that I could trade them in

but I will write another down
there’s not much else that I can do
how’s this been going for you
does it hurt like this?

oh, and what else can I do?
I’ve been calling out to you

but I can’t make a sound
got the words stuck in my mouth
sometimes I want you around
we could take a walk downtown
but I can’t you know
since you turned me upside down

about

Allye Gaietto image

Allye Gaietto Detroit, Michigan

Allye Gaietto is a singer-songwriter based in Detroit, MI. Her songs range from sparse and simple to intricate and complex; genre-wise, it’s best described as a cross section between pop melody-writing, country storytelling, and indie rock instrumentation. Her lyrics are woven with self-aware fragility, brought to life by a voice always caught halfway between a shout and a whisper. ... more
