The Ocean Between Us

Burns my eyes, can't see the truth Would I stop breathing if I'm without you? Like a cigarette filling our lungs I know we should quit, but I can't get enough Hands both tied, end of our chains Worlds apart, we're exactly the same You took the air from my lungs And I won't survive You look at me in that way I'll drown in your eyes In your eyes I tried to cut it off, you said we'll figure it out Your words are a drug, knocked me right to the ground How can I go on when you just rolled the dice? The way that you move it could end both our lives If we're both going down Take my hand, wе're gonna jump, ooh 'Cause therе's oceans between us But that's not enough You took the air from my lungs And I won't survive You look at me in that way I'll drown in your eyes 'Cause I know, you know, I know, you know You give me something to believe in I know, you know, send a signal We'll pay the price of divin' in Ooh, you brought the fairy tale to life You got me so high, I swear I can fly Oh, oh, my heart ripped right in two for you Oh, oh, and there's no gettin' over you Unreliable, I'm in denial Feels like it's a trial by fire Suffocated me up in your smoke And you ask me what I'm dyin' for I had a dream we could survive The ocean's divide I could watch you for a lifetime
