In Solo

She takes the morning bus
And makes her way once more
A mile from door to door
But it's slow
The streets are full of people
Desperate to remain
One step ahead of pain
That's the show

She moves in solo
She moves in solo
So low in solo

He checks his screen again
In hope of something new
A text, a like or two
A word from home
He grabs onto his coffee
And slips through the crowd
His head now slightly bowed
Checks his phone

He moves in solo
He moves in solo
So low in solo

Any page can be hard to turn
In a story we write together
Any stage can suddenly turn
From sun into bad weather
Had a dream about a crying boy
Running through a field of heather
Alone...

I'm old enough to bare the truth
But bare it well?
Well, that's hard to tell
Does it show?
Your reach a time when even friends
Can't hear you shout
What's it all about?

You move in solo
You move in solo
So low in solo

When the moon is high and the night is long
In the city that never steeps
A million sounds in a tide of noise
Is the company that you keep
But the clock ticks slower than an aching heart
That lives from beat to beat

She takes de evening bus
And leaves her work behind
Another day of grind
Again it's slow
He opens up the door to her
And turns away
He's had one more tough day
And they know

We move in solo
We move in solo
So low in solo

We move in solo
We move in solo
So low in solo
