Thoughts with a girl that I can’t forget
Lips to a drink that I’ve only just met
and neither which I will get away without paying for
I watch the clock in the hotel lounge
I see a brown dress and stare it straight to the ground
Is it any surprise that every pair of eyes lie on the floor?

Nobody’s watching, but nobody’s trying
I guess nobody’s cheating tonight
So why should I?

Shadows are strangers when you’re far from home
and strangers are shadows you’re not meant to know
It’s only memories that accompany me to the fourteenth floor
Up in my room, I wait for the walls
to give with the swing of a tired wrecking ball
Clothed in blue light, the walls and I wait for something more

If everybody’s sleeping then no one’s doing any harm
I guess nobody’s cheating tonight
So why should I?

Nobody’s moving and nobody cares
Nobody’s cheating tonight
