i've got to get this crossword done

of everything you've said

all the one way conversations

words that i forget

and it would be so easy to see

if i could be there now

i've got to write this postcard

from the place i'm standing in

but there's no signs anywhere

i can't find anything

it would be so easy to see

if i could be there now 

right now right now right now

i've got to paint a picture 

paint a picture of your face

but it could be anyone

and who cares anyway

it would be so easy to see

if i could be there now 

right now right now right now

there's no disturbance

not a noise moves anything

five hundred voices 

and i can't hear anyone

faces i can't recall

with names that i can't forget

there's no hands turning

to tell me the time right now 

right now right now right now
