Lyric

Hollow room, hollow floor

Your words come in

But they land far

I catch your face

Through the pane

Every line arrives

Clean and plain

You speak so close

I hear the sound

But the air between us

Keeps us bound

I nod on time

I answer right

Still something in me

Stays outside

Spoken through glass

I hear you clear

Spoken through glass

You stay right here

Spoken through glass

I answer back

But I’m not in

That same exact room

Your hand lifts slow

Mine lifts too

Same small motion

Different view

I read your mouth

I know the turn

I know the meaning

I still don’t burn

Close enough

To call your name

Far enough

To feel the strain

Spoken through glass

I hear you clear

Spoken through glass

You stay right here

Spoken through glass

I answer back

But I’m not in

That same exact room

If I pressed my palm

Would you know

How quiet it gets

Where I go

I can see the shape

Of where you stand

But the wall of air

Won’t give me your hand

Spoken through glass

I hear you clear

Spoken through glass

You stay right here

Spoken through glass

I answer back

But I’m not in

That same exact room

Spoken through glass

I’m almost there

Spoken through glass

I’m still not where

You’re standing now

I know that sound

But I’m outside

The same exact room
