Watching people by Waltraud Mudrich

What's in a train
but people watching
watching their phones
watching the lights
watching their lives to by

What's on a train
but people watching
watching the screen
flicker so mean
makes me wanna ask them why

What's in a life
but people watching
people watching
their lives go by

What's in a lane
but people watching
watching the blanks
for some time and some pence
watching at their own expense

What's on a plane
but people watching
watching the schedule
watching it cool down the heart until it dies

What's in a life
but people watching
people watching
their lives go by

What's in a frame
but people watching
watching their hopes
watching desires
remaining unsatisfied

What's in a life
but people
watching people
watching their dreams collide

What's in a life
but people watching
people watching
their lives go by

What's in a life
but people watching
people watching
their lives go by
