Aren't you tired of going through the motions?

Is the daily grind meant to dull the mind?

I sense a window somewhere closing

Somewhere in the world that I just have to find

The days blur together

I watch the ceiling buckle

The walls are closing in

There's a black hole in the living room floor

I keep trying to ignore

But it's growing

If love is just a chemical reaction

Is there a pill to take?

Something to quell this ache?

Is this the real thing or a distraction?

Is it worth the risk?

My life would detonate

The weeks blur together

I watch the ceiling buckle

The walls are closing in

There's a black hole in the living room floor

I keep trying to ignore

But it's growing

I'm on my way to your house, I can't wait anymore

I'm pulling in the driveway

I'm standing on your porch

My knuckles hesitate an inch away from the door

What happens when it opens?

Even in my fantasy, I can't commit to believing

That I'll get what I want

I'm afraid of what I want

Even in my fantasy, I keep the car running

In case I need to take off

The months blur together

I watch the ceiling buckle

I wonder when it's caving in

There's a black hole in the living room floor

I keep standing on the edge and looking in

And on the other side is another life

A version of me with a spark in her eyes that I don't have

And now she's laughing

And it's killing me that I cannot see what's making her laugh

From where I'm standing

And I have to know, so I'm going in

I'm going in

Let's try this again

I'm on my way to your house, guided by the stars

I'm pulling in the driveway

I'm turning off the car

I'm running to your porch

I'm sprinting up the stairs

The door swings open and you're standing there

You're beaming down at me

You're reaching out for me

You pull me in your arms and I feel your heart pounding

I take a step back to catch my breath

And we look at each other and double over and laugh

And laugh

And laugh
