You seem unsure of yourself
Standing off to the side
Your eyes shining brightly towards me
Tell me who broke your heart
And left you all on your own
With a view of love still fading
We've got to figure this out
Why in every town, the sky is falling
In and all around us
Could it be, you and I are the ones to blame?
At times we know which way the wind is leading
It draws us in with a swift, cool breeze
And passing through our lungs, fills our chests with a new beat,
To shrug off the darkness beneath our feet
And what of romance? Is it worth pursuing?
When even the right ones end up being wrong?
It seems we've made a mess of what's more than a feeling
Oh my god, does it break your heart?
The distance here is growing
And we're in danger of missing what good is left
The ones who stay while knowing
Just what an awful mess we can be
So let's slow down, to take in
The air we've been quick to dismiss
We're falling faster now
But this is hardly the end, oh
It's more than simple distance
When I've found the water's up to my neck
I'm running purely on persistence
Hoping faith will force forward each step
So shake your mind from slowly sinking under
There's no time to sleep and wonder
What would life be like had I been brave?
The distance here is growing
And we're in danger of missing what good is left
The ones who stay while knowing
Just what an awful mess we can be
So let's slow down, to take in
The air we've been quick to dismiss
We're falling faster now,
But this is hardly the end, oh
So what if change is simply looking forward
And letting go of what doors have been closed
Maybe courage lies in moving on
Even though your fear begs not to
The distance here is growing
And I'm afraid that the memory of your kiss
Will be enough to stop me
