[Intro - Instrumental] [Verse 1 - Male Vocal] We used to speak the same language, now I can't translate I finally found my voice but it can't get through your gate I'm creating something honest, pouring out my soul You see danger in the tools I use, can't see me getting whole [Verse 2 - Female Vocal] We used to speak the same language, now you're drifting away I see you changing into someone I don't know today You're creating something foreign that I don't understand I'm reaching out to hold you but you're slipping through my hands [Chorus - Male and Female Duet] This divide is wearing us down Different languages, no common ground Can't communicate through narrow views You hear one thing, I hear something new We're emotionally and physically bound This divide is wearing us down [Verse 3 - Male Vocal] I'm trying to show you something but your lens is set too tight Can't see the whole of who I am, just shadows in your sight This music is my language, how I finally express You can't see the meaning but it's helping me process [Verse 4 - Female Vocal] I'm trying to understand you but you've closed yourself away The man I knew is fading more and more with every day Your music sounds like strangers, nothing I can recognize I'm watching you transform and I can't see through your eyes [Bass/Guitar Solo - 8 bars] [Chorus - Male and Female Duet] This divide is wearing us down Different languages, no common ground Can't communicate through narrow views You hear one thing, I hear something new We're emotionally and physically bound This divide is wearing us down [Bridge - Male then Female, building to harmony attempt] [Male] I'm not asking you to love my path or understand my ways [Female] I'm not asking you to be who you were in yesterday's phase [Male] Just widen the lens enough to see the man I've become [Female] Just help me understand where you went, why you had to run [Both attempting harmony] Maybe we can find our way If we try to hear what the other's trying to say [Instrumental Break - Tension] [Final Chorus - Male and Female Duet, overlapping/competing] This divide is wearing us down Different languages, no common ground Can't communicate through narrow views You hear one thing, I hear something new We're emotionally and physically bound This divide is wearing us down [Outro - Female then Male, then together] [Female] I don't want to lose you to the distance [Male] I don't want to lose you to the fear [Female] I'm still here, I'm still trying to hold on [Male] I'm still here, I'm still trying to be clear [Both] But we can't translate this divide alone No, we can't translate this divide alone [End]
