I wander around completely unseen
Through parks and even people just like a dream
They shiver a bit and then look around
Wondering about the chill they just found
Through subways I run trying for attention
I sit down beside someone and nudge them just a smidgen
They look beside them at the empty seat
Then slide away and pull in their feet
They know they're not alone and wonder if they're crazy
Or maybe that drink earlier made everything just a little bit hazy
Their stop is coming up, just a few minutes more
Then they will bolt, straight for the door
Up the stairs they run to the bright sunlight
Trying to escape their unseen fright
Finally a calm comes over them once more
But just wait til the next time the subway closes its door
