lyrics

Crowded spaces
I thought I’d be nice for once and this is what I get
Ten thousand people there
And I don’t know why but I feel alone.

Roaring silence;
I can’t hear a thing because there’s so much to be heard
There’s something in my head
I swear it wasn’t there before
I wish you had come.

All the faces
Trying to look as perfect and as friendly as they can
They’re talking all the time
And I don’t know why but I feel alone.

Crowded spaces
One last call for loners hell is coming down your way
They won’t let you forget
Why you’d wanna be alone.
I wish you had come.

Strong agoraphobia took a hold of me as it always does.

Empty boxes
filling up the space which some good friend has left for us
I’m tired of all the fuss
I think it’s time for me to go.
(I think it’s time for me to go, I think it’s time)

Silent voices
Franny and Zooey left, I should’ve guessed what they were up to
They’re probably both laughing now at
All the poems they wrote.
(They’re probably both laughing about it all)

Stupid choices
Everything you do is enough to pass the time
You roll along the tide
And then they kill you off the show.
I wish you had come.

Crowded spaces, finally understood what Franny and Zooey laughed about
Ten thousand people there and not a single one was you.
