作词 : Benjamin Gibbard 作曲 : Benjamin Gibbard The Eiffel Tower built to smaller scale The freshest oxygen I'd ever inhale I tapped a bottle against the safety rail killing time
And you were like a walking compliment Tall in stature and exceptionally read In dummy glasses and a cardigan (Oh, come on)
And oh so empty were the faces of the dealers and the waitresses around
You said that all these things you've learned to ignore The hidden cameras on the casino floor And what gets paid for behind hotel doors (Oh, come on)
Pretend every slot machine is a robot amputee waving hello The people stare into their eyes And they feed them little bribes and then they go
The never-ending twilight In a basement where the sun has never spilt You said that you were lonely And then we kissed like lonely people do
You said this city has a beating heart That pushes people down the boulevard And they're all hoping for a wish fulfilled In a desert for a dollar bill Those foolish dreams, you know they plague me still (Oh, come on)
And oh so empty were the faces of the dealers and the waitresses around And oh so empty were the faces of the dealers and the waitresses around
The Empty
