[Verse 1] Midnight is glowing and the room is still I feel your phantom steps on my window sill I know you’re the greatest love of my life, it’s true But my armor’s cutting right, dictating what I do Yeah, my pride is governing my every single stride I can’t move forward to you, so I run and hide Frozen on the starting line, locked inside my head Living with the heavy words that we left unsaid [Chorus] But I know you are the reflection of my deepest wound We’re just dancing in the shadows to a silent tune I’ve got the exact same fear keeping me from you Afraid to take the first step, afraid to see it through We’re staring at the mirror but we turn away Trapped inside the spaces of the games we play [Verse 2] I hear your silent plea, I see your own disguise But look at what I build under winter skies My songs describe it all, love with a capital A This acoustic rhythm’s shouting what our lips can’t say My truest wish, my deepest spark in the dark Is just to be held safely right against your heart But you’re running from the echo of the lines I write While I'm fighting the hurricane alone tonight [Chorus] And you are the reflection of my deepest wound We’re just dancing in the shadows to a silent tune I’ve got the exact same fear keeping me from you Afraid to take the first step, afraid to see it through We’re staring at the mirror but we turn away Trapped inside the spaces of the games we play [Bridge] I want to run but my feet are glued to the floor I build a palace out of chords, but you lock the door I swear I know who you are when the lights go down Then why are we still strangers in this lonely town? My wound is loud, my heart is proud But this electric silence is tearing us apart right now [Chorus] 'Cause you are the reflection of my deepest wound We’re just dancing in the shadows to a silent tune I’ve got the exact same fear keeping me from you Afraid to take the first step, afraid to see it through We’re staring at the mirror but we turn away Trapped inside the spaces of the games we play [Outro] My songs describe it all... love with a capital A But I'm still frozen, waiting in your shadow Hoping you'll take the first step today Just take the first step [Fade out on a single, gentle guitar strum]
