Silent Waiting Room

(shh) My phone is on silent It’s way past two,

completely quiet

Under the streetlights, we wait for a sign Tracing the cracks where

the pavement aligns (yeah,

we wait) Nobody's calling,

we left them behind Yeah,

we're just killing the time

It's two in the morning,

a knock on the glass A tourist with maps,

asking how to get past The avenue closed for the repaving crew

He doesn't know where he is,

and I don't either,

to be true (where we going?) He shrugs,

walks away, slips into the dark

Next thing I know,

I'm sitting in a park No,

wait, it's a waiting room,

fluorescent light Stack of old magazines from ninety-nine,

out of sight

Under the streetlights, we wait for a sign Tracing the cracks where

the pavement aligns (yeah,

we wait) Nobody's calling,

we left them behind

Yeah, we're just killing the time

Flip the page, see the dust on the cover Some forgotten star

holding hands with another My battery's low,

but the screen doesn't glow It’s better this way,

letting everything go (let it drift)

Yeah, we're just killing the time

(killing the time, yeah) Silent screen,

let it fade
