Hotel
And we are in a hotel
with draped windows and a shut door
the walls cannot contain this growing void
as I watch you sit silently pending on your ploy
With sunken spirits and a heavy heart
I hear our mistakes play leading roles in this part
And we are in a hotel
with draped windows and a shut door
these walls cannot contain the undoing of us
as I watch you grab your bags as we are headed for a cusp
With steady breathing and a cluttered mind
I hear the tearing of two lives in this room
And we are in a hotel
with draped windows and a shut door
these walls cannot contain my hopeless wonder
as you walk away, breaking us asunder
I am in a hotel with draped windows and a shut door
these walls cannot contain the memories of those two lovers
as I lay my head to rest and my heart to ponder
