I watch you every day

Same face, same way

Coffee shop at eight

You order the same thing

Never look around

Just stare at nothing

I know your routine

Better than my own

You walk past my window

Always alone

We're all just empty rooms

Empty rooms, hollow you

Bus stop Tuesday morning

Same coat, same shoes

Clutching paper tickets

Unread news

Your eyes are like mirrors

Vacant glaze in blue

Wonder if you notice

How it all came through

We're all just empty rooms

Empty rooms, hollow you

I could shake you, break through

Wake you from this sleep

But I’m frozen too

In this routine we keep

We're all just empty rooms

Empty rooms, hollow you

Maybe tomorrow

You'll look up and see

That we're both sinking

In the same black sea

Maybe tomorrow

We'll break from this spell

But today we're trapped

In our separate hell

We're all just empty rooms

Empty rooms, hollow you

I watch you walk away

Same face, another day
