On the sidewalk outside, It looks like it is closed There are no show times On the ticket window No one is here, No one is seated Just a glare On this lover defeated
Empty Heart Theatre That’s where you’ll find me. I’m the one you can’t ignore I’m dying on the marquee
As the reel to reel ends I quickly load another I’m a prisoner to my sins That play on the projector As the frames land A shutter runs through me Like some cotton fever hands Pushing me to an ending.
Get it out of the streets If that feeling still grows Get it back so I’ll see You coming down my row.
Empty Heart Theatre That’s where you’ll find me. I’m the one you can’t ignore I’m dyin’ on the marquee
Elevators broken The gallery you’ll find me On the balcony’s rim Tossing down my limbs
Empty Heart Theatre That’s where you’ll find me. I’m the one you can’t ignore I’m dyin’ on the marquee Empty Heart Theatre I’m dyin’ on the marquee
