"Fell Through" lyrics

In a hundred million ways
I had lost the nerve to say
How every fiber of the heart
Is pulled from nothing at the start

So as it spun out of control
Should I have sought the half or whole?
For I can see the now from then
Will never know this place again

Out of focus, out of time everybody needs a little light
Anechoic passersby have seen the little sea within her eyes

And I don't even have to be bold enough to shake the floor
To be the driftless, silken glimmer shining at her door
I'll leave it to conviction alone until I've seen the truth
We were tangled in our hopes before they fell through

Must I smash apart the phone
To drown the contrapuntal drone?
They say it's just a little noise
But what's a loss that don't destroy?

Out of focus, out of time everybody needs a little light
Anechoic passersby have seen the little sea within her eyes

And I don't even have to be bold enough to shake the floor
To be the driftless, silken glimmer shining at her door
I'll leave it to conviction alone until I've seen the truth
We were tangled in our hopes before they fell through
