"Negative Space" lyrics

"Negative Space"

Change the focus, blur me in the background
Shudder to think that I could ever be found
Don't wanna be what the light hits last
Find me lost in the abstract

You're not like me, we're perfect strangers
You fly close to the sun, and I run from danger
We're oil and water
And the portrait never fits the frame, and I can't make it

Just give me a sign
Meet me in the middle, meet me in the middle
The look in your eyes
Kills me just a little, meet me in the middle
And find me
In the negative space

The light dies slowly in a vacuum
Burn the flash and lock me in a dark room
I'm overexposed, but the picture's black
Lose me in a lack of contrast

You're not like me, we're perfect strangers
You fly close to the sun, and I run from danger
We're oil and water
And the portrait never fits the frame, and I can't make it

Just give me a sign
Meet me in the middle, meet me in the middle
The look in your eyes
Kills me just a little, meet me in the middle
And find me
In the negative space

I'm gonna miss you when it's all gone
I'm gonna miss you when it's all gone
I'm gonna miss you when it's all gone
Yeah, I'm gonna miss you when it's all gone

It's all gone
When I get washed out and it's all a blur, and it's all a blur
All gone
When I get washed out, I can't fix it now, it's already burned

Give me a sign
Meet me in the middle
The look in your eyes
Kills me just a little, meet me in the middle

Just give me a sign
Meet me in the middle, meet me in the middle
The look in your eyes
Kills me just a little, meet me in the middle
And find me
In the negative space
