I wanna ask you
But you won't tell me what you need
And you're an expert at this science
Of the silence in between
And now we've buried it so deeply
That we cannot guess its shape
And the gravity we give it
Even light cannot escape

We keep revolving in this way
Was there something more that
You forgot to say?

Why would you think
I'd be so weightless?
When all I can do is bring you down?
Why would you think that I would
Want you to be so weightless
When I need you here on the ground?

It's another letdown
It's another disappointing day
Another reason not to try
And another debt you can't repay
And now you're holding on to nothing
As if it's something to defend
And always holding on to one last breath
And one last chance
So I learned to count to ten

And now it's more than what you need
And now you've gone so high
I just don't know how you breathe

(chorus)

And oh, now you can let it all fly free
It might mean a little more
If you could trade
A little something more for
All you've thrown away

(Chorus)
