Abyss of Lonely (Redub)

Empty chair by the sink, one plate on the rack Phone face down on the table, no call coming back I leave the hallway lamp on, still feels like a cave Walk past your jacket twice like it might start to wave It gets loud in this apartment When the fridge kicks on and stops I hear my own footsteps answer From the floorboards and the walls I’m down in the abyss of lonely No handrail, no signs, no one to notice Just me and the dark and the same four walls And every small sound makes the silence crawl I keep looking for a door But the room keeps getting more Like there’s no bottom, only more below That’s how it goes In the abyss of lonely Your mug in the dishwater, your book on the couch Mail piling up by the door, I don’t sort it out I talk to the TV just to hear a reply Then I catch my face in the glass and look away fast It gets loud in this apartment When the fridge kicks on and stops I hear my own name in the plumbing Then it cuts me off I’m down in the abyss of lonely No handrail, no signs, no one to notice Just me and the dark and the same four walls And every small sound makes the silence crawl I keep looking for a door But the room keeps getting more Like there’s no bottom, only more below That’s how it goes In the abyss of lonely
