(Verse 1)
The edges of the world are getting blurred and out of focus
I’m waiting for a sign, a little prayer, or some hocus-pocus
To keep me from the edge of where the"us" becomes a"me"
To stop me from the sinking in this cold and restless sea.
I’m leaning out too far over the things we couldn't fix
Mixing up the memories like a desperate cocktail mix.
(Pre-Chorus)
I’m looking for a safety net in the middle of the street
But the concrete’s getting closer and I’m shaking on my feet
I used to have a person who could read my every thought
Now I’m just a lesson that the loneliness has taught.
(Chorus)
And I’m looking for a hand to come and catch my fall
But there’s nothing but the shadow of your picture on the wall
I’m tumbling through the silence, I’m screaming through the air
Reaching for a promise that I thought was always there.
The gravity is winning, I’m a star that’s lost its glow
With nobody to catch me when I finally let go.
(Verse 2)
I walked into our bedroom and I tripped over the space
Where you used to keep your shoes and where I used to see your face.
Every stumble is a mountain, every slip is like a cliff
Living in the wreckage of a"maybe" and an"if."
I thought you were the anchor, I thought you were the ground
But I’m falling in the quiet and I’m making such a sound.
(Bridge)
I’m waiting for the impact, I’m waiting for the crash
Watching all our"always" turn into a pile of ash.
I’d give anything for friction, I’d give anything for weight
To stop this downward spiral before it gets too late.
(Chorus)
Yeah, I’m looking for a hand to come and catch my fall
But there’s nothing but the shadow of your picture on the wall
I’m tumbling through the silence, I’m screaming through the air
Reaching for a promise that I thought was always there.
The gravity is winning, I’m a star that’s lost its glow
With nobody to catch me when I finally let go.
(Outro)
Any second now...
I’m gonna hit the floor...
I’m gonna feel the break...
And not be"us" anymore.
Catching my fall...
But nobody’s there.
Just the air.
Just the fall.
