The Call
G.A.S. Drummers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Vi a tua chamada há pouco, então tive que retornar
Estava longe do telemóvel, fala então o quê que era?
Como assim não tens nada para falar comigo se tu é que ligaste?
Quando acho que supero, tu voltas again
Pedes espaço e eu respeito, eu me esqueço com tempo
Depois eu percebo que não me fazes bem
Diz o que queres de mim, vens quando já me habituei
Amor não correspondido
Pus-me no meu caminho
Esqueci a beber com amigos
Chamadas não atendidas
Mensagens sempre lidas
Mas nunca respondias
E hoje quem diria
Hoje queres voltar a falar comigo
Agora que tão bem me sinto
Afoguei as mágoas a beber vinho
Que ligasses para um dos teus amigos
Tu mesma disseste, não devíamos ter-nos conhecido
Estou farto de vai e vem porque já tem sido cansativo
Missed call, Mrs. Cold
I’m okay on my way
Missed call, Mrs. Cold
Stop calling, não me fazes bem
A missão, a missão
Era ignorar-te mas falhei
Missed Call, Mrs. Cold
Tu é que pedes para eu bazar
Depois queres mais voltar
Já estava a me habituar
Queres ver-me a tua atrás
Queres ver-me na tua mão
Vou me distanciar
É essa solução
As outras estou a falhar
Estou sempre a fracassar
Ai que desilusão
Missed call, Mrs. Cold
I’m okay on my way
Missed call, Mrs. Cold
Stop calling, não me fazes bem
A missão, a missão
Era ignorar-te mas falhei
Missed Call, Mrs. Cold
Eu estou bem on my way
The lyrics of G.A.S. Drummers' "The Call" narrate the story of someone who has been contacted by an old flame who wants to reconnect, but this person is hesitant to do so because this past relationship didn't work out. The singer expresses confusion over why the ex-lover reached out if they have nothing to say. The song touches on themes of unrequited love, confusion, and moving on.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Missed call, Mrs. Cold" several times. This phrase seems to allude to a cold relationship where the other party is trying to reach out but is ultimately unsuccessful. The singer hints at feelings of frustration with the situation, expressing a desire to distance themselves from this person, as they no longer bring any positive feelings.
As the lyrics progress, the singer becomes more resolved in their decision to move on, even though it's a difficult process. The song's narrator is attempting to forget this person by focusing on themselves, growing through their struggles, and ultimately becoming stronger because of it.
Overall, "The Call" is a song about relationships, how they can become complicated, and how it's okay to move on when things just aren't working out.
