Sublevel Waiting Room (النسخة 2)

Verse 1

Strip light buzzes, floor tile cracked

Bolted chairs in a straight blue rack

Ticket stub gone soft in my hand

Screen up front, red and stalled

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when the number turns

Tell me if the line still moves

Tell me why the buzzer's silent

Tell me who this room still serves

Chorus

Take a number, take a seat

Forty-three, never me

Take a number, take a seat

Buzzer hums, never me

Verse 2

Man in grey called last July

Name still chalked on a peeling sign

Coffee cold in a paper cup

Nobody comes to call him up

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when the number turns

Tell me if the line still moves

Tell me why the buzzer's silent

Tell me who this room still serves

Chorus

Take a number, take a seat

Forty-three, never me

Take a number, take a seat

Buzzer hums, never me

Bridge

I printed my own ticket

Fed the slot myself

No clerk behind the counter

No hand on any bell

Chorus

Take a number, take a seat

Forty-three, never me

Take a number, take a seat

Buzzer hums, never me
