your melody swarms around my bed
like a dozen hammers to my head
never thought I'd see you walk away
but I'd be better if that was my mistake
but we're too far apart
playing our own parts
and I'm always one step away
from your heart
another reminder I'm too late
slipping through cracks in spinning plates
torrential the calm before the storm
where running and hiding is the norm
but we're too far apart
playing our own parts
and I'm always one step away
from your heart
serenity eases herself in
complacency's always sure she wins
but my situation's not so bad
just look at the times that we've both had
'cause we're too far apart
playing our own parts
and I'm always one step away
from your heart
yeah we're too far apart
playing our own parts
and I'm always one step away
from your heart
