This Box Is Empty lyrics

Lyrics
She's crossing out the details Dusting off the picture frames, it's saturday She's been waiting for the phone to ring She's been waiting all night But it doesn't matter who's on the line As long as the voice works But you're too scared of what you might say
So you think it out on paper, hypothetical and safer While she's thumbing through her catalogues Picking birthday cards, her favourite stars I guess she's lonelier than you
And if this box is empty Go out and find another one With a prettier design And greater depth inside And a lid to keep it all from spilling out
And you can fill it up with letters Back when things were better And both of you had blinders on And story books together And you pretend it outweighs all the bad things
And now she disconnects her phone, after the second ring And all the drama you can swallow Never check your ego I guess no one's lonelier than you
And if this box is empty What if this box is empty What if if this box is empty What if this box is empty
