02 Empty Line Cliché

It’s beautiful, I’m so alone
Imagery of misery seems so far away
From me right now
Fading in a dark smoke cloud
I don’t expect anything
’Cause loneliness is good to me
But I’m catching leaves off trees
Hoping no one else can see

’Cause today I can see the things I couldn’t see
And I will walk across a busy street
Without looking at all
I’ll say the things I wouldn’t say
Drive to a random place
I won’t be an empty line cliché
Not today

And maybe I’ll call a friend
Or a relative I haven’t spoken to
’Cause I’m so caught up with myself
I forgot about everyone else
Or maybe I’ll go fly a kite
And remember how it felt
When I was just a little child
Much more meaning in my smiles

But today I can see the things I couldn’t see
And I will walk across a busy street
Without looking at all
I'll say the things I wouldn’t say
Drive to a random place
I won’t be an empty line cliché
Not today

I’d walk by near where I think she lives
In summertime to catch a glimpse
You can think of things to say
But it won’t work out that way

But today I can see the things I couldn’t see
And I will walk across a busy street
Without looking at all
I'll say the things I wouldn’t say
Drive to a random place
I won’t be an empty line cliché
Not today
Not today
