Emergency
L.A. Williams Lyrics

What comes next when there's nothing left?
What do you do when you've hit rock bottom? When you feel like you've lost everything and have no idea what to do next?

Who's my emergency contact? I'll leave the space blank I guess Your emergency contact My neighbour what's her name again Your emergency contact Can I teach my dog to run for help? Your emergency contact I live alone don't rub it in
The singer realizes that he has no one to turn to when things go wrong. Not even his neighbour whose name he can't remember, let alone his pet dog. He's alone in the world with no one who cares enough about him to be an emergency contact.

Here I am it feels I've failed again I tried to bow but I couldn't bend The richest girl in the graveyard I'm walking dead with a beating heart
The singer is drained and defeated. He's attempted to do the right thing, but failed to do so. The reference to the richest girl in the graveyard implies that one could have all the money in the world and still feel as though they've lost everything. The singer is still alive, but just going through the motions of living.

Who's your emergency contact? Well, my son can't drive he's only six Your emergency contact? When your next of kin is sinking tin Your emergency contact? It's a loaded question at the least Your emergency contact? When your brother lives across the sea
The singer questions who his emergency contact should be, and realizes that it's not as simple as it sounds. He feels as though he doesn't have anyone he can truly rely on, and is left with no good options.

A beating heart in a metal chest A secret code that I couldn't get A blinded man who can see for days Do you love him more when you're missing him?
The singer describes a feeling of being disconnected from the world, even though he's still alive. The reference to the secret code implies that there are things in life that don't make any sense, no matter how hard one tries to understand them. The last line implies that the singer has someone he's missing, but questions whether it's love or just a fantasy.

Your emergency contact? My father left when I was three Your emergency contact? My mum breaks down in times of stress Your emergency contact? My boyfriend's camping in the bush I'm too damn proud to ask for help.
The singer finally admits that he doesn't have anyone he can turn to for help. His father left when he was young, his mother isn't reliable, and his boyfriend is out of reach. He's too proud to ask for help, even though he desperately needs it.
