The Spaces Between

(THE SPACES BETWEEN US) (9/8 → 2/4 → 9/8 altwave) (VERSE 1 — 9/8) you say you’re tired but you won’t tell me what’s been weighing you down (9/8) I hear you breathing like you’re trying not to make a sound (9/8) we keep on talking but we circle the same ground (9/8) and I can’t tell if you want me here around (9/8) (VERSE 2 — 9/8) you look away like you’re afraid of what I’ll see in your eyes (9/8) I feel you pulling back before you even realize (9/8) I reach for you but something shifts and you go quiet inside (9/8) and I’m left guessing what you’re trying to hide (9/8) (PRE‑CHORUS — 2/4) your voice cuts out you shut me out (2/4) (CHORUS — 9/8) we keep falling through the spaces between us (9/8) trying to hold on to something we can trust (9/8) I hear the truth in the things you never say (9/8) and I don’t know how to meet you halfway (9/8) (VERSE 3 — 9/8) you say you’re fine but your hands are shaking just a little too much (9/8) I feel the distance every time we try to talk or touch (9/8) I want to help you but you won’t let me close enough (9/8) and loving you is starting to feel rough (9/8) (BRIDGE — 9/8 → 2/4 → 9/8) you whisper “I’m okay,” but it doesn’t match the look on your face (9/8) and suddenly I feel like I’m standing in the wrong place (9/8) the moment snaps— we lose our map (2/4) and fall back into this looping chase (9/8) (PRE‑CHORUS — 2/4) your voice cuts out you shut me out (2/4) (FINAL CHORUS — 9/8) we keep falling through the spaces between us (9/8) trying to hold on to something we can trust (9/8) I hear the truth in the things you never say (9/8) and I don’t know how to meet you halfway (9/8) (OUTRO — 9/8) we drift, we drift, we drift (9/8) still trying to make sense of this (9/8) the distance still exists (9/8)
