lyrics

Now there's space
And there's time
And there's things you find between them
Like you, in my eyes
On the other side of reason
Inspiration, I don't wanna know the meaning so soon

Getting back
A reason that
Got away
From my grasp

Cause you take the time
It takes to find
A state of mind
You were denied
Multiplied
By the times you tried
To push aside
Your dirty pride

I come up dry
Falling behind
Terrified
And telling lies
To keep my
World intact
Amplified
Under attack

Just gotta get back
The reason
That got away from me
You say to me
It's the reason
That got away from me
Away from me

Flicker memories of dancing, cherry lights
Find me screaming out like beauty, open skies
Forever sheltered by the nights within your eyes
Steady tempted by the sway, just one more time
For every little action
A lifetime of wondering how the reason got away from me
Away from me, yeah
And who'd have figured it'd be me who's crying now?

Had my fill staying in some spaces I hate
Putting two and two together till I can't see straight
Dizzy spell ain't a part of me

You gave me what I need straight out the gate
Right place, right time, simple twist of fate
You just wouldn't believe the things that are part of me

Like the reason
That got away from me
You say to me

Forgetting all the words we spoke
And remembering the way you looked back then
I'm standing in the way, I know
But you're never gonna be alone again

It's the reason
That got away from me
Away from me

Forgetting all the words we spoke
And remembering the way you looked back then
I'm standing in the way, I know
But you're never gonna be alone again

Out of it
My whole life
I've been out of it
My whole life
Out of sync with everything
The reason why
No reason I could find
