Track Name: Empty Room
They shuffled me in to hold your hand
I did not know what to feel
Your worried eyes I knew them well
But this time they seemed so real

So I walked around to try and find a free seat
But all I found was a big old empty room

Do you ever lay your hands down
and say I'm not proud of that?
Do you ever want to be so understandable
Like you don't want any more?

So I walked around to try and find a free seat
But all I found was a big old empty room
Track Name: Running Backwards
Borrow my heart, you can keep it
Please take it all, there's nothing to it

We're running backwards
Into the night
Into the day

Trickling light through your window
Casting lines onto your pillow
Before I leave you stop me
Hold me close, whisper to me

We're running backwards
Into the night
Into the day
Track Name: Getting Old
You know you want to, you want to, you want to
But you don't act on emotion, you're frozen, you're frozen
Your boring and rational, you echo, you echo
You're stable and thoughtful, you're dying, you're dying

You're getting old

You save all your money and you hide it for somebody
You try to be different and open you told me
We both know you want to be closer, you need to
You're falling deeper into nothing and you know it

You're getting old

You're missing something, the hands keep turning
You're board and feckless, you're waster, you're wasted
We both know you want to, you want, you want to
But you don't act on emotion, you're frozen, you're frozen

You're getting old
