[Verse 1] Time keeps its distance I reach, it slips away My hands find empty edges Your shadow fades to gray I count the falling seconds They scatter on the floor I chase the shape of always It leaves me wanting more [Pre-Chorus] I look ahead, I look ahead Into the black instead I hear my name in the hollow air But nothing's there [Chorus] Falling behind, falling behind I reach for you, you move in time Falling behind, falling behind I look for light and find the blind (Falling behind) (Falling behind) [Verse 2] The hours wear my face down Like rain on broken stone I run through silent hallways But never run alone The dark keeps all its answers Behind a locked-up door I know you wait in motion I just want one word more [Pre-Chorus] I look ahead, I look ahead Into the black instead I hear my name in the hollow air But nothing's there [Chorus] Falling behind, falling behind I reach for you, you move in time Falling behind, falling behind I look for light and find the blind (Falling behind) (Falling behind) [Bridge] And if the night is hunting me I'll let it take its breath I learned your silence wears a crown And mine wears less and less Reach... And it falls back Look... Into the dark [Final Chorus] Falling behind, falling behind I reach for you, you move in time Falling behind, falling behind I look for light and find the blind Falling behind, falling behind I reach and lose you every time Falling behind, falling behind I look forward into the dark behind (Falling behind) (Falling behind)
