[Intro | Low Energy | Close Ensemble Delivery | Piano Pattern + Muted String Taps] She missed her stop again at dawn Nobody said a word [Verse 1 | Steady Motion | Observational Lead Delivery | Bass Steps + Piano Figures] The woman downstairs says she's thinner The doorman says she barely sleeps Someone saw her cross on red Then stand there staring at her feet She left her coffee on the counter Walked three blocks before she knew Her friend from work says she is fine Then lowers her voice and says, "Not true" [Pre-Chorus | Building Energy | Tight Group Phrasing | Dry Drums + String Lift] We say she needs some time We say she needs some help We say it like we know the difference Between losing someone else [Chorus | High Energy | Open Lead + Restrained Harmonies | Full Drums + Piano Drive] Look at her now Everybody has a diagnosis Look at her now Everybody knows what broke She laughs too hard, she leaves too early Doesn't answer half her calls We feel sorry when she's leaving Then judge her once she's gone [Post-Chorus | Tense Energy | Low Group Response | Handclaps + Bass Hook] Poor thing Bad sign Same story Different line [Verse 2 | Steady Motion | Observational Lead Delivery | Muted Guitar + Piano Figures] Her sister says she cuts people off Her old roommate says she clings A man at dinner calls her reckless Someone else says she feels nothing She wears the same coat four days running Then buys a dress she doesn't need One friend says, "At least she's trying" Another says, "She's causing a scene" [Pre-Chorus | Building Energy | Tight Group Phrasing | Dry Drums + String Lift] We say she should go home We say she should go out We lower every voice around her Then make her life too loud [Chorus | High Energy | Open Lead + Restrained Harmonies | Full Drums + Piano Drive] Look at her now Everybody has a diagnosis Look at her now Everybody knows what broke She laughs too hard, she leaves too early Doesn't answer half her calls We feel sorry when she's leaving Then judge her once she's gone [Bridge | Suspended Energy | Half-Spoken Ensemble Delivery | Low Piano + Bowed Strings] Maybe she is falling apart Maybe she is getting through Maybe there is no clean difference From where we're standing in the room Maybe every worried question Has a little pleasure in it too It feels easier calling someone lost Than admitting maybe we are She should sleep She should eat She should call She should leave [Breakdown | Mounting Energy | Alternating Group Delivery | Bass Ostinato + Drum Dropouts] She should sleep She should eat She should call She should leave She should stop She should try She should smile She should cry [Chorus | Peak Energy | Open Lead + Layered Ensemble | Full Drums + String Surge] Look at her now Everybody has a diagnosis Look at her now Everybody wants to be right She laughs too hard, she leaves too early Walks home alone at two We say, "Someone ought to help her" Like that someone isn't you [Outro | Falling Energy | Close Ensemble Delivery | Piano Return + Soft String Release] She missed her stop again near closing This time she didn't turn around We watched her through the window Till the train went underground [End]
