[Verse 1] I left when the bars shut down Hands in my coat, eyes on the ground Crosswalk paint peeling away My shadow kept me company [Verse 2] Windows blink in a sleeping row A bus sighs by, then lets me go I pass a dog tied to a gate It doesn't bark, it just looks away [Pre-Chorus] And the whole town keeps moving Past my skin, past my name I'm here, but I'm drifting Like a note with no frame [Chorus] Empty avenue, take me through I don't need the crowd, I don't need you Empty avenue, I move slow Let the noise fade out, let it all go Empty avenue, empty avenue I disappear in the blue [Verse 3] Storefront glass shows a stranger's face Headlights wash it, then erase No one calls, no one knows Where the quiet in me goes [Pre-Chorus] And the whole town keeps moving Past my skin, past my name I'm here, but I'm drifting Like a note with no frame [Chorus] Empty avenue, take me through I don't need the crowd, I don't need you Empty avenue, I move slow Let the noise fade out, let it all go Empty avenue, empty avenue I disappear in the blue [Bridge] Under the wires and the blank black sky I feel my outline loosen up tonight No more faces, no more lines Just my breath in the space I find [Final Chorus] Empty avenue, take me through I don't need the crowd, I don't need you Empty avenue, I move slow Let the noise fade out, let it all go Empty avenue, empty avenue I disappear in the blue
