[The Space Between] [Verse 1] I'm sinkin' deep inside this velvet chair today I watch the dusty light begin to fade away The wall clock ticks a rhythm that I can’t ignore Reflection’s waitin' for me on the hardwood floor [Pre-Chorus 1] My vision starts to wobble like a fadin' spark I’m slippin' through the cracks and headin' for the dark [Chorus 1] My spirit’s circlin' round and round above my head Searchin' for the truth in every word I said I’m lookin' for the person that I used to know Tryin' to find the man inside the afterglow [Verse 2] The ceiling fan is hummin' at a steady pace I watch the spirit leave the skin upon my face It rises through the air and leaves the floor behind To orbit in the quiet corners of my mind [Pre-Chorus 2] The silence in the room is gettin' hard to bear I’m reachin' out for somethin' that isn't really there [Chorus 2] My spirit’s circlin' round and round above my head Searchin' for the truth in every word I said I’m lookin' for the person that I used to know Tryin' to find the man inside the afterglow [Instrumental Break - Soulful Expressive Saxophone Solo] [Verse 3] I find a blurred-out photo of a little boy Who didn’t know the weight of what he would destroy The spirit checks the labels and the choices made And counts the debt for every single game I played [Pre-Chorus 3] I’m lookin' up to meet the eyes I call my own Knowin' that I'm never truly all alone [Bridge] I turn to face the cracked and dusty mirror wall A heavy shadow starts to stretch and starts to crawl It hovers right above me till I’m cold as ice One spirit and one body payin' out the price [Final Chorus] My spirit’s driftin' lighter now above the ground I’ve found a home inside a world without a sound I’m finally at peace with bein' lost and free The space between the man I was and meant to be [Outro] Circlin' round and round my head again tonight Lookin' for the truth within the fadin' light Driftin' in the hollow space between the views Walkin' in the only shoes I’ll ever choose
