"Through The Cracks" lyrics

"Through The Cracks"

Center stage, egos raised, I fall down
Misplaced my sensibilities
Every time that I wait for somethin' to fall into my path
I'm left wonderin' where I could be

'Cause it hurts just the same
Still in sight, but just out of reach

Because all it can take is all that I have
An hour on the train, a momentary glance
I fucked up your name, I'm trying to take it all back
But I'm losing you through the cracks

Fall in place, far too late, with nothin'
To keep the black dog in its cage
So to fend off any complication, get a job, lose all imagination
Because being here's like drowning for all to see

'Cause it hurts just the same
Still in sight, but just out of reach

Because all it can take is all that I have
An hour on the train, a momentary glance
I fucked up your name, I'm trying to take it all back
But I'm losing you through the cracks

What you're missing, you can't put your finger on
You're waitin' for the noise to die
Intuition leads me to believe I'm wrong
You said that you'd be home last night
Now I see you in a different light
Draw back the curtains, there's nothin' inside
Just a mirage of a time that felt right
