Let me take a minute to catch my breath
We are treading water in uncharted depths
And I don't see the shore
No, I don't see the shore
I see it in the way your smile
Fades when I leave
How it used to stay a while
Just as sure as you'd breathe
I feel it in the airwaves
When you say you love me
And my head knows what my heart
Won't accept to be
How did we get here?
(What happened?)
What went wrong? Was it something I did?
How did the evenings of loving and laughing
Turn into late nights of hurting and longing?
All of our stressing
Keeps building, keeps pressing
Our patience suppressing
Frustrations progressing
Now it's my word versus your word
Saying words we never should've heard
Words we can't unsay
When you're four hundred miles away
♪
Just another minute to calm my thoughts
Sixty more seconds to pretend we're not
Drowning
Drowning
I see it in the way your smile
Fades when I leave
How it used to stay a while
Just as sure as you'd breathe
I feel it in the airwaves
When you say you love me
And my head knows what my heart
Won't accept to be
How did we get here?
