"Pointless Words in Empty Chat Rooms"
This randomly popped into my head after a friend who(m?) I was chatting with went on a Be Right Back.
There's a grief that can't be spoken
There's a pain goes on and on
Pointless words in empty chat rooms
Now my friend is not online
Here we talked of pointless subjects
Here we were, spamming ev'ryone else
Here we sang random lyrics
But the music never came
From that button in the corner
We could see a world reborn!
And we typed in all caps lock
And updated
Our very social statuses
In this little Gmail chat room
At night
Oh my friend, my friend, I can't forgive you
Now that you left me here alone
Pointless words in empty chat rooms
Now my friend is not online
Phantom smileys in the chat box
Phantom lyrics scattered 'round
Pointless words in empty chat rooms
Now my friend is not online
Oh my friend, my friend!
Don't ask me!
Why you so suddenly logged off
Pointless words in empty chat rooms
Now my friend is not online
