lyrics

empty red chairs
allthough I’m alone
I’m sitting in my seat
second last row
the number on my ticket guided me there
it’s a good view I guess

going to the theatre on a Monday afternoon
in front of me ten times taller than me
the close up of her made-up make-up face

first scene
the man hums old music
a woman is passing by
heading for the gate to Massachusetts
flashing lights whenever she walks by
you can see the attraction in his eyes

in front of me ten times taller than me
the close up of her made-up make-up face

the place is empty
no popcorn on the floor
while traffic is rolling
I’m in front of the score
people are working
what am I doing here?

she always wears t-shirts
with stupid words on them
rich or nasty or the name of her city
she doesn’t belong there
words can change their meaning
to much make-up
way to much make-up for a girl

he’s just looking at her
she’s standing on a stare
always trying not to look at her
while she’s not looking at him at all

it’s ok
looking through her
windows between
people can change
