In Tensions

I awoke to a new sun
 And a heartbeat in your chest in a rhythm that I'd never heard
 I couldn't keep time
 No matter how I tried, each moment was a couple steps behind
 ♪
 This can't last, no
 ♪
 This can't last, no
 Awkwardly pacing, I find myself flailing
 As I try to pinpoint the direction you're sailing
 Classically conditioning myself
 While you struggle with sustaining mental health
 ♪
 I chased after you
 But the tempo kept increasing and my lungs began to freeze
 And as the darkness spread
 I heard a voice that said
 "Quit wearing those holes in your shoes
 Things don't exist just because you want them to"
 ♪
 I was counting the miles
 You were counting the days
 Ain't it strange that the numbers we wanted were moving in opposite ways?
