lyrics

We slowly descend from the nights that keep us up.
The taste of salt still lingers in the air as you dissolve,
Into the ocean while I’m drifting into the sky.
Yeah, you’re sinking to the bed of the sea.
While I’m drifting, you’re sinking with waving arms.
These idle waves have turned the other face.

Every step you take the ground shakes.
You're so much further away.
You're out of reach each growing inch
Builds a sea between you and me.
Every step you take the ground shakes.
You're so much further away.
You're out of reach,
Each growing inch escapes me.

I'm so glad I'm the topic for everybody's negative conversation.
I've slashed the ropes, I've slashed the ropes.
Cause all I've done was lose.
I've lost sleep, I’ve lost my mind.
Now I’m losing faith in you.

Every step you take the ground shakes.
You're so much further away.
You're out of reach each growing inch
Builds a sea between you and me.
Every step you take the ground shakes.
(You fell away)
You're so much further away.
You're out of reach,
(You fell away)
Each growing inch escapes me.

It feels like you’re right there in front of me, (What we invented wears down on me.)
Fading away so lets just leave. (Towers we built crumble, statues fall)
Lets just leave and sail away beyond the horizon,
Take me someplace safe.
And I know I never think about the consequences.
A waterfall pours from my mouth,
And crystalizes over the ground.
