It's not a one-way conversation

But we speak a different language

Nothing's gonna change this situation

What is done is just the damage

Won't you stay around

I'll be out in the open

'Cause you're the light I'm your shadow

We're not lovers we're not fighters

You go on ahead I will follow

Catch me in a beam it's getting brighter

Won't you stay around

I'll be lost in the open

Where do you run when nobody is calling

Who's gonna taste my tears when they're falling

I don't know how much longer you can stay around

Stay in my line of sight

I feel you when you're not with me

I can move my lips but they don't make a sound

When you're not with me

Try to find my way back to solid ground

When you're not with me

Talking to the walls but they don't hear a sound

When you're not with me

Come back to where it began

Holding on holding on

So are we losing

Are we winning

You and me we grew up fast together

Is this an end or a beginning

You're my shelter from the weather

Walls are falling down and the windows are broken

Say I'll see you round when I'm lost in the open

Where do you run when nobody is calling

Who's gonna taste my tears when they're falling

I wanna hear you breathing in the dark night

Stay in my line of sight

I see you when you're not with me

I can move my lips but they don't make a sound

When you're not with me

Try to find my way back to solid ground

When you're not with me

Talking to the walls but they can't hear a sound

When you're not with me

Would you allow me to try

Stop the clock stop the clock

And make a moment between

Tick and tock tick and tock

Would you allow me to try

Stop the clock stop the clock

And make a moment between

Tick and tock tick and tock

I've got nothing when you're not with me

I'm in trouble when you're not with me

I've got nothing when you're not with me
