Call it a day

"Call it a day" is a song by LorD and Master from the album Demeanour. This song is (yet) another song about the end of a relationship, which hasn't been confirmed between the individuals concerned and one partner is confused about the situation, asking whether the rumours are true. Musically, the song has builds that make it sound as though it's going to break into a dance song, but never does, fittingly ending the album on a series of anticlimaxes.

Lyrics

I heard a rumour
The other day
That you were gonna take
My world away
It seemed so petty
Handing me despair
There was no how or when
Or why or where

I know you're crazy but I
Wouldn't have you any other way
I know you hurt me, but
I don't wanna call it a day

I heard a rumour
Can you confirm?
That we are over
The end of our term
We should get together
Before it ends
To give our stuff back
Make sure we'll be friends

I heard a rumour
I don't want it to be true
That there's a deep rift
Between me and you
You've found another
I guess that's fine
I can't make it work
This heart of mine
