(Verse 1)
Ohh hmm "hmm"
I’ve memorized the map inside your palm
The way you drift between the storm and calm
I build my world around the words you said
But you just watch the seasons fade and end
I’m anchored to the shadow that you cast
A future built on fragments of the past
You’re the oxygen I’m desperate to breathe
But you’re the silent vow never leave.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I’m reaching out for a hand that’s pulled away
Living in the silence of the things you’ll never say.
Ohh OHHAAH! Yeahhh!
(Chorus)
(High Note - Power)
I am PULLING at the thread of a heart that isn't mine
Tracing every border, crossing every single line
I am a satellite that’s locked into your light
(High Note)
While you’re just SLEEPING through the middle of my night
I love you with a fever that you’ll never understand
Building up a kingdom on a shifting floor of sand.
(Verse 2)
You call me when the world begins to shake
I’m the only one who stays wide awake
I’m the safety net you use to catch your fall
But I’m the one you never truly call
I see the way you look right through my face
Like I’m a ghost occupying empty PLACE
I’d give you every heartbeat left in me
But you’re a lock that doesn’t want a key.
(Bridge)
(Building Intensity)
Is it a crime to want the soul you’re holding close?
To be the one you need the absolute most?
I’m screaming in a vacuum, I’m crying in the RAIN
(High Note - Sustained)
I’ve turned my DEVOTION into a beautiful pain!
It’s a heavy kind of plain, it’s a lonely kind of grace
To be second best in a one-man race!
(Guitar/Instrumental Solo - High Energy)
(Chorus)
(High Note - Max Power)
I am PULLING at the thread of a heart that isn't mine
Tracing every border, crossing every single line
I am a satellite that’s locked into your light
(High Note)
While you’re just SLEEPING through the middle of my night
I love you with a fever that you’ll never understand
Building up a kingdom on a shifting floor of sand.
(Outro)
(Soft, fading)
I’m attached to the version of you in my head
To the " love you" that was never actually said
The gravity is breaking me...
But I won't let go.
No, I can't let Go!.
No, no NOOO!
(Final high, breathy note)
I tried, I filled, I can't,No...
