02-Somewhere Else

[Verse 1 – quiet, flat] I sit here In this room All these voices None of them move Faces glow In their hands Everyone Has other plans [Pre-Chorus – restrained] I try to stay I try to breathe I’m in the middle But not seen [Chorus – small, honest] Everyone’s somewhere else Even standing next to me Everyone’s somewhere else Looking past what they can see I’m right here I don’t move Everyone’s somewhere else But you [Verse 2 – lower] Music plays I feel none Laughter falls On everyone I say a word It hits the floor I stop myself From saying more [Pre-Chorus – same, heavier] The room drifts I stay still I keep waiting For something real [Chorus – same, firmer] Everyone’s somewhere else Even standing next to me Everyone’s somewhere else Looking past what they can see I’m right here I don’t move Everyone’s somewhere else But you [Bridge – near-whisper] If I fade Would you know? Would I leave Or just go? I keep a space Inside my chest I save it all For something left [Final Chorus – resigned] Everyone’s somewhere else I can feel it in the air Everyone’s somewhere else But I’m still standing here I’m right here I’m still true Everyone’s somewhere else But you [Outro – cut short] Voices blur The lights go low I stay here And let them go Somewhere else Somewhere else
