Empty Room

Scream your complaints

Slam the doors and break all of the plates

But you give more away

Than anyone could ever steal

You feel erased

I can tell by the look on your face

You don't have to say a word

I know just how you feel

You feel

You feel like a paper heart coming unglued

You feel like the ceiling of an empty room

You'd better do everything you want to do

'Cause there's no pill or promise

That can do those things for you

And when you do

Do it exactly the way you wanted to

'Cause there's no going back to fix it

After you're through

While you wait for something to say

Children in the balcony smile and sing along

You'd better do everything you want to do

'Cause there's nobody else who's gonna

Do those things for you
