Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Room half-dark
Clock off time
Ceiling breathing
Walls rewind
I blink once
Floor turns thin
Whole world tilting
You lean in
[Pre-Chorus]
Air went strange
Colors bent
Every doubt
Came and went
I reached out
Nothing there
Just that feeling
You were everywhere
[Chorus]
It was on the edge of reality
And I saw you peering through the space between
Like a burn in the film of the world I knew
All the static fell quiet when I looked at you
On the edge of reality
You were peering through the space between
And it felt like falling through a waking dream
Till the whole room folded at the fragile seam
[Verse 2]
Doorway blurred
Corners swayed
Your outline
Almost gave
One slow breath
Pulled me through
Half in shadow
Half in you
[Pre-Chorus]
Name unstuck
From my tongue
Every answer
Came undone
I stepped close
You stepped back
Still your eyes
Pulled me off the track
[Chorus]
It was on the edge of reality
And I saw you peering through the space between
Like a tear in the film of the world I knew
All the static fell quiet when I looked at you
On the edge of reality
You were peering through the space between
And it felt like falling through a waking dream
Till the whole room folded at the fragile seam
[Bridge]
If I move too fast
Will you disappear?
If I call your name
Will you stay right here?
Every heartbeat hangs
On that silver line
Where your almost-hand
Reaches into mine (oh)
[Chorus]
It was on the edge of reality
And I saw you peering through the space between
Like a tear in the film of the world I knew
All the static fell quiet when I looked at you
On the edge of reality
You were peering too, the space between
And I’d lose this world just to touch that screen
Where your eyes break through in the space between
