here you are stepping on my toes again
why is this where we meet?
here you are falling over my shoes again.
why is this where we meet?
here i am getting crushed by your feet again.
why is this where we meet?
here i am falling over your shoes again.
why is this where we meet?
i was kicking, i was flailing
circling around looking for something to grab
in my mind i saw your hand outstretched
in my mind, in my mind
but that was there and this is here
and I know you are nowhere near
now i’m destined to fall
caving in with it all
the sun the moon the stars and everything, everything
now I’m destined to fall
in my mind i saw your hand outstretched
in my mind i held your hand outstretched
in my mind i grabbed your hand outstretched
in my mind…
