lyrics

At 1 o’clock PM today a man stepped on the stage
His voice was calm and perfectly attuned
His speech was full of wisdom, not a trace of desperate rage
And he boldly spoke in truths all afternoon
As if he was preaching to an empty room

Who knows if he believed
The words that left his mouth
They clearly gave him meaning at the time
Perhaps he came to dread
What he thought must be said
But silence would have hounded at his mind

He spoke of painful yesterdays as flawed but honest friends
And pointed toward tomorrows yet to bloom
He called upon the present to be a time to make amends
But in the end it seems he spoke too soon
For he was preaching to an empty room

They nod their heads too quickly
Their smiles are too wide
You know when they don’t really understand
But when they don’t even try
Don’t bother to ask why –
Well that’s what breaks and cripples any man

The room was simply silent, resoundingly austere
The theater and crowd were cloaked in gloom
Quietly he left the stage, guided by his fears
And now he questioned all he had assumed
As he disappeared into the empty room
