[Verse] Let me take a minute to catch my breath We are treading water in uncharted depths And I don’t see the shore No I don’t see the shore [Prechorus] I see it in the way your smile fades when I leave How it used to stay awhile, just as sure as you’d breathe I feel it in the airwaves when you say you love me And my head knows what my heart won’t accept to be [Chorus] How did we get here? What happened? What went wrong? Was it something I did? How did the evenings of loving and laughing Turn into late nights of hurting and longing? All of our stressing Keeps building, keeps pressing Our patience suppressing Frustrations progressing, Now it's my word versus your word, Saying words we never should have heard Words we can’t unsay When you’re four hundred miles away [Verse] Just another minute to calm my thoughts Sixty more seconds to pretend we’re not Drowning Drowning [Prechorus] I see it in the way your smile fades when I leave How it used to stay awhile, just as sure as you’d breathe I feel it in the airwaves when you say you love me And my head knows what my heart won’t accept to be [Chorus] How did we get here? What happened? What went wrong? Was it something I did? How did the evenings of loving and laughing Turn into late nights of hurting and longing? All of our stressing Keeps building, keeps pressing Our patience suppressing Frustrations progressing, Now it's my word versus your word, Saying words we never should have heard Words we can’t unsay When you’re four hundred miles away [Chorus] How did we get here? What happened? What went wrong? Was it something I did? How did the evenings of loving and laughing Turn into late nights of hurting and longing? All of our stressing Keeps building, keeps pressing Our patience suppressing Frustrations progressing, Now it's my word versus your word, Saying words we never should have heard Words we can’t unsay When you’re four hundred miles away [Refrain] The tie starts to fray When you’re four hundred miles away Words we can’t unsay When you’re four hundred miles away
