The Moment Between Us and the Ground (Live Version) Lyrics

You're driving me home but I'm not in the car

You might as well have left me on the asphalt in the dark

Like a photograph burning

I'm turning to ash

I'm in the gutter with the dirt, the weeds

And more unwanted trash

Suspended in the air

And then I'm shattered everywhere

It just hasn't set in

Static, ringing

Suddenly nothing

My blood pounds and I'm

Facedown

And the last thing I see

Is the moment between us and the ground

As you drove us to nowhere, your hand was in mine

We were headed for the cliff face but

I couldn't face the signs

Then the road disappears and your hand breaks away

And airbags aren't cushions

No matter what you say

The sudden death of expectations

No sense, no will or inclination

To get up again

And to you it's disappointing but to me

It's destroying

Static, ringing

Suddenly nothing

My blood pounds and I'm

Facedown

And the last thing I see

Is the moment between us and the ground

I can't stop thinking back to you and I

Cause there's nothing up ahead

I thought I fell with you, but it turns out

We fell out instead

They say it's better to have loved and lost

Than not to love at all

But now I know it's not the ground that breaks you

It's the fall

Static, high-pitched ringing

And we're suddenly

Nothing

My blood pounds and I'm

Facedown

And the last thing I see

As I'm falling

Is the moment between us and the ground

It's the moment between us and the ground

It's the moment between us
