In this no ones home.

In this no ones home.

Lets just leave
while the going's good-
while the chairs are empty,
and no one's home.

Let's just leave
the parlor and the room-
the lights are off,
and no one's home.

Lets just leave
while there's still time-
the furniture's covered,
and no one's home.

Lets just leave
it all at that-
I'm not returning,
and no one's home.

Let's just leave
since it's over-
it only was an empty time,
and no one's home.

Let's just leave
no hurt feelings-
the boxes never unpacked
in this no ones home.
