V1
Your breath comes quick
Lets out in a steady sound
In the moonlit midnight
I hear you're still here
One room over
We're fathoms away from empty
One wall away
We're lightyears from fulfilled
The rise of your chest
A constant floating reminder
Red and alive
Why don't I feel that alive
Chorus
At 2am in the dark
I should be laying in your arms
But here I stay
Miles away from you
Miles away from you
You've laid your head down
I should, too
But here I sit
Miles away from you
Right here next to you
V2
Through the heavy silence
Time ticks unstopping
I hear the absence of it
Louder than the sound
One room over
Dreaming of some place far
One life over
Flying through the dark
The beat of your heart
Echoing into cavities
Thunder rings into
The space between me and you
Bridge
And eons away from this place
We join hands and grin like kids
Somewhere in the distance where
I used to think we'd escape
Enveloping the gripping fears
Is still the hope of all those tears
Breathe in, breathe out, it's all the same
Just pull me in and say my name
V3
The light of heavenly bodies
Touching your sweet face
In my tired mind
You're content to stay
One room over
A million steps apart
One door open
But mine is shut and guarded
The glow of streetlamps
Flooding through the shades
Your breath, your heart
Please catch me
