Lyric

New name written on a piece of white

Morning traffic, everybody knows the light

They move together

I miss the cue

Guess there's something here

I'm supposed to do

They gave me a name that I don't recognize

Three little words in somebody else's life

Don't cross on red

Yeah, I saw the sign

There wasn't a car

Till there was one this time

You grabbed my arm

Like I should understand

Why everybody cares where everybody stands

You said your name

Then you said mine

Funny how it sounded

Different that time

Everybody's laughing

Everybody knows

Where to sit

Where to walk

Where the conversation goes

I've crossed a world

I've watched one fall

But somehow this

Makes less sense than it all

Call me by a name

I'm still learning how to wear

Leave a little space

Maybe something fits in there

I don't need the road

To tell me where to go

If there's something on the other side

I wanna know

I was empty yesterday

Maybe I'm empty still

But if nothing lives inside me

Why can I feel this

Keep moving

Keep moving

Don't tell me what it means

Keep moving

Keep moving

There's something in between

School gate

Blue sky

Ordinary scene

A hundred little lives

Doing things I've never seen

Someone waits

Someone runs

Someone waves across the street

Apparently that's normal

Interesting

Then I heard the shutter

Click behind my head

A photograph of smiling faces

One of them was dead

Or maybe not

You couldn't see

The blackened face

Was smiling back at me

Something red

Falls from the frame

Touch my finger

No one sees the stain

You ask me

What are you looking at

I don't know

But it's looking back

Call me by a name

I'm still learning how to wear

Leave a little space

Maybe something fits in there

I don't need the world

To tell me what is real

There's something in the silence

And I wanna know the feel

I was empty yesterday

Maybe I'm empty still

But something in the hollow

Just moved against my will

I know how a world can break

I've seen the line

I've crossed the place

Where everything becomes erased

But lunch at noon

A friend who waits

A stupid joke

A name that stays

Why do these little things

Feel harder to face

Maybe a wound

Doesn't disappear

Maybe you carry it

And still stay here

Maybe an empty room

Isn't empty at all

Maybe it's waiting

For something to call

Call me by that name

I think I'm starting not to care

Leave a little space

I'll see what gathers there

I don't need an answer

Waiting at the end

I'll walk through every strange thing

And see what happens then

I was empty yesterday

Tomorrow I don't know

But something moved inside me

So let's see where it goes

Keep moving

Keep moving

The bell is ringing now

Keep moving

Keep moving

I'll figure this thing out

A black face in a photograph

A drop of red below

You ask me if I'm scared of it

No

I think it's interesting

New name

New world

Same empty soul

Maybe empty doesn't mean

There's nothing left to hold
