Hospital Rooms

We've been sitting here in this room for far too long

And it's been days since you last talked to me

All our styrofoam cups still painted around our mouths

And I guess, somehow now, the sunlight still seems so far away

When you asked if we could drive you home

But you fell back asleep before we could leave

So no matter what you could never know

Where you were

I close the door behind me, put a smile on my face

I wish I stayed that day but how could I have known?

Now through the walls, I hear those chimes screaming at me

Waiting for a moment when every note becomes monotone

And I remember the day you thought you might make it out

But I guess that can be a little naive

To think you could just walk out of this place

Through the front door now

It's over now, the sun is up

I'll say goodnight
