lyrics

The empty chair from the living room is on the curbside now with a sign in magic marker saying, "FREE." And later on that same yard-sale, it's the empty chair that isn't there. It's the curbside that's empty now. Look and see. Soon enough we will get used to the living room without the empty chair there. That is why I have been painting. Look! It's the empty chair. Yeah, the one that used to be there. It's on the ceiling now.
