Everybody And No One

from For Everybody And No One by Matt Midgley

/

lyrics

He locks the front door late
Even though he got up on time
Watches the first train come and go
To buy himself some
Gets lost inside a crossword
Only knows a couple of clues
Drags and stamps his third cigarette
Get plenty more to lose

Surrounded by nameless faces
Never felt so alone
Sends out a message addressed
To everybody and no one

She watches the glowing boxes
For the fiftieth hour that week
The chime of the inbox tells her
The weekend's not quite yet
She focuses on the middle
Tries to hold herself in
Closes her eyes and counts to ten
A drink can't come too soon
