No Forwarding Address v2 (Mini Tape Mix) (Suno Exclusive)

[Intro] Lights still on at city hall, but nobody's home Phone still rings on schedule, dial tone all alone [Verse 1] They say the mayor's out sick, been out sick for years Left his coat still hanging, left the silence for us here Papers stacked in order like he'll be right back Static on the intercom is all we ever track [Pre-Chorus] No forwarding address, no goodbye, no sign Just an empty office running right on time [Chorus] Lights still on at city hall, but nobody's home Key still in the drawer and the voicemail's full of tones We keep asking for the mayor, get a buzz, then a clear Same old echo in the hallway: nobody here [Verse 2] Heard he's living in the treeline with the refugees we knew Heard he's just another outlier passing through Heard he saw the whole loop coming and stepped clean out the door Nobody's sure of nothing, we don't ask anymore [Pre-Chorus] No forwarding address, no goodbye, no sign Just an empty office running right on time [Chorus] Lights still on at city hall, but nobody's home Key still in the drawer and the voicemail's full of tones We keep asking for the mayor, get a buzz, then a clear Same old echo in the hallway: nobody here [Bridge] Maybe he was never coming back Maybe we knew that from the start Just a desk with the wood worn thin And a phone line with no one on the other end So we learned how to nod through the meetings How to file the hurt away Now the building keeps its hours But it can't say who walked away [Outro] Lights still on at city hall, but nobody's home Phone still rings on schedule, dial tone all alone No forwarding address Just a line that keeps ringing after the room goes cold
