I met a man, with a plan
On the subway in the evening
He said he rode, everyday
Just to leave a lonely home

And he told he that he'd stayed alive
Just getting by on conversations with strangers
He said I look around, ignore the noise
And listen close for aching souls alone

Everyday, we met at eight
And crossed the shadow lines of fear and hate
We erased the shadow lines, and shallow truths
Of millennial pain

But then once my life turned around
I moved away and in with an old flame
No parting words, new part of town
'Cause that is how the world rolls today 

All of our lives, we pass one another
Watching our time, as it crumbles into dust
Voices sing out, but echoes still follow
There's so much silence, so much left unsaid

So a few months went by
And I found myself lonely (Lonely again)
Then on one autumn day
Found my feet guide me to him (Back to that subway)
As I went down at 8
Looking for a shape familiar (In a familiar state)
I did not find a trace
Neither breath nor a face
Just an empty seat leaving

We were just familiar strangers
