[Intro] Welcome back. The lights are still on. [Verse 1] Marble floor under fluorescent white. Plastic palms beneath a painted sky. Every storefront wears the same old smile. Nothing here has changed in quite a while. [Refrain] Take your time. There's nowhere else to be. Take your time. Everything you need is here. [Verse 2] Escalators carry nobody. Soft chords drift across the empty floor. A melody I almost recognize returns a little slower than before. [Refrain] Take your time. There's nowhere else to be. Take your time. Everything you need is here. [Bridge] Store after store. Light after light. Same reflection. Different night. Store after store. Light after light. How long have I been inside? [Verse 3] I found the fountain. Water's gone. Coins still shining at the bottom. I remember making one wish here. I don't remember what it was. Stay. Stay. Stay. [Refrain] Take your time. There's nowhere else to go. Take your time. We already know your name. [Final Verse] Marble floor. Fluorescent white. Plastic palms. Painted sky. Every exit leads me past the same dark shop I've passed five times. [Final Refrain] Take your time. The doors are open wide. Take your time. There's nothing outside. Take your time. The lights will never die. The atrium never closed. Neither did I. [Outro] Welcome back. ... You took your time.
